Do the new provisions in the CDPA go too far or are they just right? What's a CISO to do? Listener Bradley Teer of Armor Cloud Security asks, "What's the scariest moment or event that's ever happened in your career as a security practitioner?" What's Worse?! Two listeners, Rick McElroy of Carbon Black and Jamie Leupold of PreVeil asked the same question for this week's game. It's a question Mike knew was eventually going to be asked. Please, Enough. No, More. We talk about data privacy in today's segment. Can we get beyond the discussion of GDPR? Ask a CISO On a previous episode we talked about the meager adoption of multi-factor authentication. We concluded that it was still too complicated to use. So what's encryption's excuse? Why isn't encryption available and used by all? How does the security paradigm change if everyone is sending encrypted messages?
