402-521-3080In this episode, Stephanie Olson and Rebecca Saunders delve into the concept of 'sharenting'—the act of parents sharing information and images of their children online. They discuss the implications of this practice, including the risks of digital footprints, identity theft, and digital kidnapping. The conversation emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries, obtaining consent, and being mindful of the potential repercussions of sharing personal information about children on social media. The hosts encourage parents to reflect on their sharing habits and consider the long-term effects on their children's privacy and safety.takeawaysSharenting refers to sharing your kids online.Many parents are unaware of the risks associated with sharenting.Children do not have a say in what is shared about them.Digital footprints can lead to identity theft.Digital kidnapping is a real concern.92% of children have an online presence by age two.Parents often share too much personal information.Setting boundaries around sharing is crucial.Consent from children should be prioritized.Social media should not be treated as a private journal.Sound Bites"Kids don't understand the internet.""Children are full people, not objects.""I'd rather be paranoid than sorry."Chapters00:00Introduction to Sharenting02:44Understanding the Risks of Sharenting05:12The Impact of Digital Footprint on Children08:12Digital Kidnapping and Its Implications11:11Privacy Concerns in Sharing Children's Information13:51Setting Boundaries for Sharing16:45The Role of Intentions in Sharing19:59Navigating Consent and Family Dynamics22:53Final Thoughts on Responsible Sharing35:08R&R Outro.mp4Support the showEveryone has resilience, but what does that mean, and how do we use it in life and leadership?

The digital world's most alarming vulnerabilities take center stage as we dive into how AI is compromising our justice systems and personal privacy. A senior Australian lawyer shocked the court by submitting AI-generated fake legal citations in a murder trial, with both defense and prosecution failing to verify their accuracy—revealing how our cognitive shortcuts create dangerous blindspots when working with artificial intelligence.Privacy breaches continue their relentless march as hundreds of thousands of conversations with Elon Musk's Grok AI chatbot were exposed through Google search results. These breaches, containing sensitive information from drug manufacturing instructions to medical advice, highlight our growing acceptance of data vulnerabilities as the new normal. The question looms: have we become so desensitized to privacy failures that we no longer demand accountability?Meanwhile, a major ransomware attack on kidney dialysis firm DaVita compromised nearly 2.7 million patients' personal and health information, including social security numbers and even images of personal checks. Most troubling was the months-long delay in disclosure, leaving affected individuals vulnerable without their knowledge.On a lighter note, we say goodbye to a technological relic as AOL's dial-up internet service finally powers down after running since 1989, and Nathan shares his ingenious Disney parks hack—booking rides that commonly break down to score unlimited Lightning Lane passes for both Disneyland and California Adventure in a single day.Join us as we examine these technological turning points while enjoying Remus Single Barrel Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Is it time to consider a pay-for-privacy model, or is guaranteed digital security simply another empty promise?

What happens when a cybersecurity incident requires legal precision, operational coordination, and business empathy—all at once? That's the core question addressed in this origin story with Bryan Marlatt, Chief Regional Officer for North America at CyXcel.Bryan brings over 30 years of experience in IT and cybersecurity, with a history as a CISO, consultant, and advisor. He now helps lead an organization that sits at the intersection of law, cyber, and geopolitics—an uncommon combination that reflects the complexity of modern risk. CyXcel was founded to address this reality head-on, integrating legal counsel, cybersecurity expertise, and operational insight into a single, business-first consulting model.Rather than treat cybersecurity as a checklist or a technical hurdle, Bryan frames it as a service that should start with the business itself: its goals, values, partnerships, and operating environment. That's why their engagements often begin with conversations with sales, finance, or operations—not just the CIO or CISO. It's about understanding what needs to be protected and why, before prescribing how.CyXcel supports clients before, during, and after incidents—ranging from tailored tabletop exercises to legal coordination during breach response and post-incident recovery planning. Their work spans critical sectors like healthcare, utilities, finance, manufacturing, and agriculture—where technology, law, and regulation often converge under pressure.Importantly, Bryan emphasizes the need for tailored guidance, not generic frameworks. He notes that many companies don't realize how incomplete their protections are until it's too late. In one example, he recounts a hospital system that chose to “pay the fine” rather than invest in cybersecurity—a decision that risks reputational and operational harm far beyond the regulatory penalty.From privacy laws and third-party contract reviews to incident forensics and geopolitical risk analysis, this episode reveals how cybersecurity consulting is evolving to meet a broader—and more human—set of business needs.Learn more about CyXcel: https://itspm.ag/cyxcel-922331Note: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Bryan Marlatt, Chief Regional Officer (North America) at CyXcel | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marlattb/ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from CyXcel: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/cyxcelLearn more about ITSPmagazine Brand Story Podcasts: https://www.itspmagazine.com/purchase-programsNewsletter Archive: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/tune-into-the-latest-podcasts-7109347022809309184/Business Newsletter Signup: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-business-updates-sign-upAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story

Contracts may not be the most exciting part of our work as researchers—but they can make or break a project.  In this Research Rockstar Conversation, Kathryn Korostoff talks with Benjamin de Seingalt, Esq., Corporate Counsel and Director of Privacy and Compliance at MarketVision Research, about the growing complexity of contracts in market research and insights work. Together, they explore: Why contracts are bigger and more detailed today How privacy regulations shape what goes into agreements Red flags researchers should watch for Four practical tips for navigating research contracts For anyone working in market research—whether agency-side, client-side, or an independent contractor, this episode will help you spot issues before they derail a project.

They expose fraud, catch cheating spouses, and track down missing assets — but they don't come cheap. Zachary Crockett takes the case. SOURCES:Ashley Wardlow, chief operating officer at Nathans Investigations. RESOURCES:"Eugène-François Vidocq and the Birth of the Detective," by Daisy Sainsbury (The Public Domain Review, 2024)."The Pinkerton Story - Chapter 1," (The Pinkerton Foundation, 2017)."Expectation of Privacy," (Cornell Law School Legal Information Institute)."Evidence & Private Investigators," (Dugas Law Firm). EXTRAS:"Private Investigation Equipment (Detective Store)." 

This year at Black Hat USA 2025, the conversation is impossible to escape: artificial intelligence. But while every vendor claims an AI-powered edge, the real question is how organizations can separate meaningful innovation from noise.In our discussion with Evgeniy Kharam, Vice President of Cybersecurity Architecture at Herjavec Group (formerly), Chief Strategy Officer (CSO) at Discern Security, and long-time security leader and author, the theme of AI confusion takes center stage. Evgeniy notes that CISOs and security architects don't have the time or resources to analyze what “AI” means in every product pitch. With over 4,000 vendors in the ecosystem, each layering its own flavor of AI, the burden falls on security leaders to distinguish hype from usable automation.From Gondola Pitches to AI OverloadEvgeniy shares how his creative networking events—skiing, biking, and beyond—mirror the industry's need for genuine connection and trust. Just as his “gondola pitch” builds authentic engagement, buyers want clarity and honesty from technology providers. The proliferation of AI labels, however, makes that trust harder to establish.Where AI Can HelpEvgeniy highlights areas where AI can reduce friction, from vulnerability management and detection to policy writing and compliance. Yet, even here, issues such as hallucinations, privacy tradeoffs, and ethics cannot be ignored. When AI begins influencing employee monitoring or analyzing sensitive data, organizations face difficult questions about fairness, transparency, and control.The Unspoken Challenge: Surveillance and TrustAs we discuss the balance between employee privacy and corporate protection, it becomes clear that AI introduces new layers of surveillance. In Europe, cultural and legal boundaries create clear separation between personal and professional lives. In North America, the lines blur, raising ethical debates that may ultimately be tested in courts.The takeaway? AI has the potential to unlock workflows that were previously too costly or complex. But without transparency, governance, and a commitment to responsible use, the “AI in everything” trend risks overwhelming the very leaders it is meant to help.___________Guest:Evgeniy Kharam, Chief Strategy Officer (CSO), Discern Security | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ekharam/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.com___________Episode SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974BlackCloak: https://itspm.ag/itspbcwebAkamai: https://itspm.ag/akamailbwcDropzoneAI: https://itspm.ag/dropzoneai-641Stellar Cyber: https://itspm.ag/stellar-9dj3___________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from our Black Hat USA 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/bhusa25ITSPmagazine Webinar: What's Heating Up Before Black Hat 2025: Place Your Bet on the Top Trends Set to Shake Up this Year's Hacker Conference — An ITSPmagazine Thought Leadership Webinar | https://www.crowdcast.io/c/whats-heating-up-before-black-hat-2025-place-your-bet-on-the-top-trends-set-to-shake-up-this-years-hacker-conferenceCatch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

O Lord, you have searched me and known me! 2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up;     you discern my thoughts from afar. 3 You search out my path and my lying down     and are acquainted with all my ways. 4 Even before a word is on my tongue,     behold, O Lord, you know it altogether. 5 You hem me in, behind and before,     and lay your hand upon me. 6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;     it is high; I cannot attain it.7 Where shall I go from your Spirit?     Or where shall I flee from your presence? 8 If I ascend to heaven, you are there!     If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there! 9 If I take the wings of the morning     and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, 10 even there your hand shall lead me,     and your right hand shall hold me. 11 If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me,     and the light about me be night,” 12 even the darkness is not dark to you;     the night is bright as the day,     for darkness is as light with you.13 For you formed my inward parts;     you knitted me together in my mother's womb. 14 I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.  Wonderful are your works;     my soul knows it very well. 15 My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret,     intricately woven in the depths of the earth. 16 Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them,     the days that were formed for me,     when as yet there was none of them.17 How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!     How vast is the sum of them! 18 If I would count them, they are more than the sand.     I awake, and I am still with you 19 Oh that you would slay the wicked, O God!     O men of blood, depart from me! 20 They speak against you with malicious intent;     your enemies take your name in vain.  21 Do I not hate those who hate you, O Lord?     And do I not loathe those who rise up against you? 22 I hate them with complete hatred;     I count them my enemies.23 Search me, O God, and know my heart!     Try me and know my thoughts!  24 And see if there be any grievous way in me,     and lead me in the way everlasting!1.     Are you consciously aware of God's observing presence of every moment of your life? Is that a comforting or stressful thought?2.     Do you think of God's presence as more loving, neutral or hostile? Why?3.     Is it reasonable to believe that God doesn't leave you because he loves you? Why or why not?4.     Do you feel God's presence and love? When, or how? 5.     Is there a time in your life when you surrendered to God and you saw him work?

On today's show we are joined by Ron Zayas, CEO of Ironwall by Incogni, to discuss the massive data sharing and privacy risks in the leading Buy Now Pay Later apps. Ben's got the story of Illinois banning the use of AI in mental health therapy, joining Nevada and Utah in restricting chatbots amid growing concerns about their safety and effectiveness.  Dave's got the story of former President Trump threatening an executive order to ban mail-in voting and voting machines—claims experts say are unconstitutional, since election authority lies with states and Congress, not the White House.

We often hear about AI, cybersecurity, and digital transformation—but how often do we ask: Do people actually trust it? In this sneak preview, Bruno and Punit dive deeper than the buzzwords. They explore why trust, privacy, and security shouldn't just live in policies or tech stacks—but should be woven into a company's purpose, strategy, and everyday actions. When boards and leaders treat these as part of long-term value creation—not just box-ticking—real change happens.

Hey Strangers, #ai #tech #new Privacy-focused browser DuckDuckGo is rolling out a new setting that lets users filter out AI images in search results. The company says it's launching the feature in response to feedback from users who said AI images can get in the way of finding what they're looking for.Users can access the new setting by conducting a search on DuckDuckGo and heading to the Images tab. From there, they will see a new drop-down menu titled “AI images.” Users can then choose whether they want to see AI content by selecting “show” or “hide.”Users can also turn on the filter in their search settings by tapping the “Hide AI-Generated Images” option.=======================================My other podcasthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKpvBEElSl1dD72Y5gtepkw**************************************************Something Strangehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRjVc2TZqN4&t=4s**************************************************article links:https://techcrunch.com/2025/07/18/duckduckgo-now-lets-you-hide-ai-generated-images-in-search-results/https://www.techspot.com/news/109028-researchers-develop-invisible-light-based-watermark-detect-deepfakes.html======================================Today is for push-ups and Programming and I am all done doing push-ups Discordhttps://discord.gg/MYvNgYYFxqTikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@strangestcoderYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCe9xwdRW2D7RYwlp6pRGOvQ?sub_confirmation=1Twitchhttps://www.twitch.tv/CodingWithStrangersTwitterhttps://twitter.com/strangestcodermerchSupport CodingWithStrangers IRL by purchasing some merch.

Privacy. Do you know what this word means? And if so, do you have it? The word “Private” comes from the Latin term meaning “set apart,” or more importantly, “belonging to oneself”. It is self-evident that the idea and meaning of the word privacy, and how we experience it, has drastically changed in the new (more...)

In recent weeks, Telangana has been shaken by revelations that the phones of at least 600 people were allegedly tapped ahead of the 2023 Assembly elections. Investigators say the surveillance, carried out during the BRS government's tenure, targeted opposition leaders, political workers, and journalists during the sensitive pre-election period. Today on the show, The Indian Express' Nikhila Henry joins us to look at what we know about the case so far, what investigators suggest about the scale and intent of the tapping, and the larger concerns it raises.Hosted, produced, and written by Shashank BhargavaEdited and mixed by Suresh Pawar

A looming deadline always gets attention, and for DoD suppliers, the clock is ticking. On October 1, 2025, the Department of Defense will begin including Cybersecurity Maturity Model (CMMC) certification requirements in new contracts.     This week on Feds At The Edge, four leading experts cut through the complexity and share practical guidance to help you start, or finish, your CMMC journey.    Sean Frazier, Federal Chief Security Officer for Okta, explains why “Know Thy Data” is the key to applying the right level of security where it matters most.  Alan Dinerman, PhD, Senior Manager, Cyber Strategy, Policy, and Privacy at Mitre, puts CMMC in context with other cybersecurity standards, noting its focus on Controlled Unclassified Information. And Jeff Adorno, Field Chief Compliance Officer at ZScaler, warns of risks in the AI era, where sensitive data can unintentionally “leak” into Large Language Models. The panel as a whole highlights how aligning with existing frameworks and using current technologies can demonstrate progress to auditors and ease compliance.     Listen now on your favorite podcast platform because whether you're deep into compliance or just getting started, this conversation will help you navigate the evolving landscape of CMMC and beyond.   

Privacy in the digital age has grown from a background concern into one of the defining issues of our time. What began with simple questions about online safety has expanded into a complex, global conversation about how artificial intelligence, biometric data, and massive data ecosystems are reshaping daily life. Pam Dixon has been at the center of these discussions for more than two decades. As the founder and executive director of the World Privacy Forum, she's worked across the U.S., Europe, India, Africa, and beyond, advising governments, international organizations, and policymakers on how to create effective privacy protections.  In this episode, Pam takes us through the history of modern privacy law, the ways different regions approach the challenge, and the new frontiers like collective privacy, AI governance, and health data that demand fresh thinking. She also offers a grounded perspective on how to build systems that safeguard individuals while still allowing innovation to thrive, and why getting those guardrails right now will shape the future of trust in technology.  Show Notes: [4:49] Pam identified privacy risks in early resume databases and produced a 50-page report on job boards, now known as job search platforms. [8:56] Pam now chairs the civil society work at OECD in AI, contributing to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Privacy Guidelines (first adopted in 1980). [11:17] The launch of the internet marked a major shift in privacy, transitioning from slower, isolated systems to globally connected networks. [11:46] Early adoption of the internet was limited to academia, government, and tech enthusiasts before reaching the public. [12:45] Privacy frameworks were built on Fair Information Practices, developed in the United States in the 1970s by the Health, Education, and Welfare Committee (later HHS). [15:58] GDPR was developed and enforced in 2018 with extraterritorial provisions applying to companies worldwide (General Data Protection Regulation, enacted in 2016 and enforced in 2018). [18:59] Large language models and deep machine learning advancements have created new and complex privacy challenges. [22:06] Some countries approach privacy with more flexibility and openness, while maintaining strong guardrails. [23:37] In June 2023, a University of Tokyo study on data privacy was presented at an OECD meeting, highlighting evolving global strategies. [26:30] Governments are working together on “data free flow with trust” to address cross-border data concerns. [28:09] Pam warns that AI ecosystems are still forming, and policymakers need to observe carefully before rushing into regulation. [28:31] She emphasizes the emerging issue of collective privacy, which impacts entire groups rather than individuals. [29:04] Privacy issues are complex and not linear; they require ongoing adaptation. [30:24] ChatGPT's launch did not fundamentally change machine learning, but the 2017 transformer paper did, making AI more efficient. [31:53] Known challenges in AI include algorithmic bias related to age, gender, and skin tone. [33:07] Legislative proposals for privacy now require practical testing rather than theoretical drafting. [35:39] AI legislative debates often center on fears of harming innovation, but scientific data should guide regulation. [40:29] NIH reports caution participants in certain medical AI programs to fully understand risks before joining. [41:59] Some patients willingly share all their health data to advance medical research, while others are more cautious. [43:50] Tools for privacy protection are developing, but the field remains in transition. [48:56] Asia and Europe are leading in AI and privacy transitions, with strong national initiatives and regulations. [52:42] The U.S. privacy landscape relies on sector-specific laws such as HIPAA (1996) and COPPA (1998) rather than a single national framework. [54:48] Studies show that wealthy nations often have the least trust in their digital ecosystems, despite advanced infrastructure. [56:19] A little-known U.S. law, A119, allows for voluntary consensus standards in specialized areas, enabling faster innovation compared to ISO processes. [56:48] Voluntary standards can accelerate development in fields like medical AI, avoiding years-long delays from traditional approval processes. [57:32] An FDA case study on an AI-driven heart pump showed significant performance changes between initial deployment and later use, underscoring the importance of testing and oversight.

This conversation blew me away. Shyra Melo is 27 years old. First generation Colombian-American. And tomorrow she's ringing the bell at the Chicago Board of Trade as part of a company going public. But here's the kicker. Six years ago she was just a 21-year-old who heard about this Bitcoin thing on the news and decided to invest. Shyra's journey started when she kept hearing about Bitcoin everywhere. Financial advisors were telling her it would never grow. She decided to ignore them and invest anyway. That curiosity about crypto led her deeper into blockchain technology. She started understanding the real value wasn't in the coins but in the underlying tech. The chains. The propositions. The actual problems they were solving. Then she met Jason Melo. Her now husband and CTO who founded Paxo. She had a vision for privacy solutions on blockchain. He was working at a unicorn company and wasn't sure about leaving for another startup. But the vision was there. They saw the opportunity to create something different. Privacy vaults on blockchain that separate identifiable information from data analysis. Her family immigrated from Colombia. Her grandmother came first out of love. Then brought the daughters over. Including Shyra's mom who became a homeowner on her own. Powerful women showing what's possible. Now Shyra's a woman in tech at 27 years old building privacy solutions that keep kids safe. That's the American dream right there. This episode is about curiosity leading to opportunity. About mentally stepping into where you know you're going before you get there. About the difference between professionals and facade. And about how six years of consistent vision and execution can take you from Bitcoin beginner to public company executive.Connect:Connect with Rick: https://linktr.ee/mrrickjordanConnect with Shayra: https://www.instagram.com/shayra.me/ Subscribe & Review to ALL IN with Rick Jordan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickJordanALLINAbout Shayra:Driven by the revolutionary potential of decentralized technologies, I've been actively involved in the crypto space since 2018.

On this week's Long Read Sunday, NLW reads two essays exploring the intersection of Bitcoin, crypto, and politics. The first, Red Coin Blue Coin: The New Politics of Exposure, looks at the rise of politically branded Bitcoin treasuries—from Michael Saylor's Strategy to Trump Media's $2 billion BTC bet—and asks whether investors are buying the coin or the campaign. The second, A Regulator's Radical Defense of Privacy by Byron Gilliam, covers SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce's surprising embrace of cypherpunk ideals and her challenge to the financial surveillance status quo.
