Equifax, Data Security, & A Compliance Carol

Jeff’s Stories

1. Equifax nears ‘historic’ data breach settlement that could cost up to $3.5B Cha-Cha-Cha-Ching. Not FUD but dollars and cents. Put that in your risk equation and see how you do
2. Maryland Again Amends its Data Breach Notification Law It’s Maryland, it’s breach notification, figured it should be mentioned
3. Hidden Complexity is Biggest Threat to Compliance But is it, really? What if compliance, like PCI, requires you to know and keep inventory of your entire environment? If this is an issue, how does compliance solve it? How does security solve it?
4. Data Security Remains Top IT Concern for Small Businesses and Others For the statistic lovers out there.
5. Retail industry rates low on data protection Because you can’t get enough news about the Verizon 2019 Payment Security Report
6. A Compliance Carol: A visit from the Ghost of Compliance Past ’tis the season
