Previously, he was the Chief Executive Officer at NMG Technologies and the Director at Wolfpack. In this episode… Hackers are evil people trying to destroy companies and wreak havoc on the world of privacy and security. Right? Not necessarily. The word hacking and the term hacker have become grossly abused. Hackers are neither good nor bad — they are simply problem solvers. They see a system and say, “It’s supposed to do one thing. Can it do this other thing instead?” As Ted Harrington explains, the differentiating factor is the hacker’s motivation: are they after personal gain or trying to harm an organization? Those are attackers. On the other hand, ethical hackers find vulnerabilities in order to fix them and make the technology stronger. By identifying all the holes in your security perimeter, a team of ethical hackers can show you how to make your defense almost impenetrable. In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels sit down with Ted Harrington, Executive Partner at Independent Security Evaluators, to discuss how ethical hackers can improve your company’s cybersecurity. Ted talks about why many companies' security is lagging behind technology developments, the benefits of ethical hacking, and his tips for keeping your passwords secure.

In this episode… Technology is speedily moving forward in unprecedented and exciting ways. However, it’s advancing faster than regulation can catch up — meaning consumers are typically unaware of the ways their data is being collected and stored. So, how can your business handle data in a way that builds trust? Doing the right thing means not just complying with the law. There is legislation under debate for structured data regulation — but if you want to build consumer trust, you should hop on the bandwagon before the law finally rolls around. It’s important to think about the perceptions of consumers. Is the data you’re collecting providing value to your customers? Are you actually managing their expectations and maintaining their privacy? In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels sit down with Alexandra Ross, the Founder of The Privacy Guru, to discuss how to create ethical privacy practices for your business. Alexandra talks about how privacy practices are changing as more businesses move their data to the cloud and the various ways ESG is impacting private equity and capital venture firms.

He was also a research assistant at Georgia Tech, his alma mater. In this episode… Privacy used to be pretty straightforward for companies. All they had to do was write the terms of service policy or privacy statement at the end of a contract or on the bottom of a website. Now, there are many more aspects to consider if you don’t want to get sued. But besides avoiding a lawsuit, how can privacy benefit your company? Privacy isn’t just about dodging the courtroom — it’s about building trust. For example, Apple released a new ad that says “Privacy. That’s iPhone.” Those three words speak volumes about the lengths Apple is willing to go to preserve data privacy — and consumers are eating it up. Users want to know how companies will handle their sensitive information and data. If you can prove that your employees, processes, and tools are dedicated to protecting consumer privacy, your customers will keep coming back for more. In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels sit down with Blake Brannon, the Chief Strategy Officer at OneTrust, to discuss how your company’s privacy policies can build client trust. Blake talks about the privacy challenges that companies face today, how to build programs that work in harmony with your privacy software, and the importance of hopping on current privacy trends.

However, the convenience of smart technology comes at a price: your data. At the end of the day, who’s holding the information you’re freely giving up? Take autonomous vehicles as an example. Those amazing AI chauffeurs know a lot about you — and it’s hard to pinpoint exactly who owns that data after it’s been collected. Is it the manufacturer? The dealer? You?

In this episode… We all want to protect our children online — and AI is proving to be an incredibly effective tool for doing just that. So, how exactly can you use AI to eliminate crimes like child pornogrophy and human trafficking? If a child is missing and officials suspect the child is being trafficked, there’s a 75% chance they’re being sold online. But, if the only option detectives have is to scroll through ad after ad, they are wasting valuable time to find the missing child. With AI facial recognition technology, on the other hand, a computer can do a much quicker search and identify the closest matches. Now, police can quickly recover the child and build a case against the trafficker instead of wasting precious time scrolling. In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels sit down with Lisa Thee, the lead for Launch Consulting Group’s Data for Good practice, to talk about using AI to protect children online. Lisa explains how AI can speed up criminal research, her tips for protecting your children’s privacy and security, and how to better collaborate as a society to combat human trafficking.
