I was talking to the press recently about the potential landmines for compliance with CCPA and it got me thinking. So I thought I would share my thoughts. I think one of the first things is that a lot of companies don’t know how to interpret the law. We saw that with GDPR for the year prior to it going …
Tariffs Hitting the Automotive Manufacturing Industry Is Bad Enough, But Intellectual Property Protection is of Huge Concern!
Intellectual property is a valuable asset in a variety of verticals. Let’s take manufacturing, for example. More specifically the automotive industry. It is particularly vulnerable to theft. In fact, in our Webinar “Close the Gap on Insider Threat: Granular Access Controls & Behavior Analytics” , we cited a Deloitte survey where the respondents put the automotive industry at the highest …
It Takes a Village to Raise a Child, Right? It Takes a Team to Develop a Data Governance Strategy!

Geese at the ISMG Cybersecurity Summit in New York? It’s all about teamwork!

Getting Granular: Why You Need Granular Access Controls
In my last post, I said “Without granular access controls, you can’t prevent a user from copying data from a file and pasting it into an email, for example. If you only encrypt a file and do not prevent copy and paste or printing, a user can easily compromise security.” And I meant it. Now, you might be asking yourself …
Your Sensitive Data is at Risk: How Do You Manage Insider Threats?
Picture it. Your employees access sensitive and confidential customer information every day so they can do their jobs. Once the data leaves the protected confines of an information repository, file share or cloud-based service, your authorized users can share it with anyone, do anything with it and compromise your customer’s confidential information or your intellectual property. As a result, you …

Attended Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit? So did we!
I have to say, being on the other side of the Gartner Security and Risk Management Summit was a combination of exciting, fun, and educational. The cool thing is that I still got to get up on stage and the bonus was to see all the hard work that goes into exhibiting. I think the Fasoo team did a fantastic …
Another day, another… $853K?
This has been on my mind. A lot. Every day, I open my email to find news about how a company needs to pay a fine or a fee to either an individual or a regulator because data was leaked or stolen. This one in particular caught my eye because it is a classic example of data being accessed by …
Still Thinking About Regulatory Compliance?
