PrivacySolved's end-of-year Message from the CEO is becoming a tradition. This year it is called "Say it, Say it Again, it will Ricochet." See below 👇 We asked Wayne Cleghorn. our CEO and Practice Director, about when these messages began and how they are put together. He said "The messages started during the Covid-19 pandemic. I wanted to account for the year that had just passed, thank our team, praise our brilliant network and share what had been on my mind" He continues "The messages come to me and are pulled together in many ways. Sometimes, it starts with a word, a title, a phrase, a story or a nagging idea. I like it when the whole thing is fully formed in my mind before I begin to write. I also like it when it is completed by November...." "I like re-reading my past messages. I always discover something new, months or years later. I always find encouragement in them. Sometimes I forget that I have written them" concludes PrivacySolved's Wayne Cleghorn. #leadership #datagovernance #databreach #aigovernance #CEO #consulting #PrivacySolved #PrivacySolvedAI PrivacySolved

#Cybersecurity: Are we ready for the EU’s Cyber Resilence Act (CRA)? “The Act introduces greater responsibilities on manufacturers to guarantee the security of hardware and software products. Central to the Act are new obligations for manufacturers to provide software updates that fix security vulnerabilities and offer security support to consumers. By enhancing transparency on cyber risks and product security, the Act empowers consumers to make more informed choices about products available on the EU market.” “Products will bear the CE marking to indicate that they comply with the regulation's requirements. The main obligations of the Act will apply from 11 December 2027.” The Cyber Resilience Act complements the NIS2 cybersecurity framework, which entered into force last year. It is part of a series of comprehensive measures the EU is deploying to bolster the cybersecurity of an increasingly digital and connected Europe. Henna Virkkunen, European Commission Executive Vice-President, said: "We are committed to making Europe a safe and secure place for our citizens and businesses to operate. This new regulation is a major step forward in ensuring digital products in the EU do not pose cyber risks to EU consumers.” https://lnkd.in/dHH8ccV3 #informationsecurity #supplychainrisks #productsafety #dataprotection #cyberattack #governance #NIS2 #DORA #PrivacySolvedCyber PrivacySolved European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) European Commission

How to assess your use of Artificial Intelligence with our data protection audit toolkit. We see new uses of artificial intelligence (AI) everyday, from healthcare to recruitment, to commerce and beyond. If used well, AI has the potential to make organisations more efficient, effective and innovative. However, AI also raises significant risks for people’s rights and freedoms and compliance challenges. Here are five things to consider this week to build data protection into your use of AI 🤖 Assign responsibility for general oversight of AI systems to a steering group, committee, meeting or equivalent. 🤖 Do you have a 'fall back' option, if human reviewers find an issue that questions the competency of the AI system? 🤖 Think about whether your AI system may influence other groups indirectly, or the possibility that not all people in the group will be impacted in the same way because of their different contexts. 🤖 Check that there is no imbalance in the training data used to train the system, such as over representation of one characteristic or group and that it is representative of the population. 🤖 Provide different explanations tailored to the intended audience that consider the level of knowledge that they have about the subject and are clear for them to understand.
