Eleanor uses woman code to defend Kamala Harris, but makes a great point about the uselessness of all Vice Presidents. We learn a little about the US tax code, minimalism (if you can get there), and the walkability of Lisbon, Portugal. You will note early on that Eleanor is prone to extremism, as she proudly rates almost everying as a 0 or 10. And at the time of this episode release, I'm not sure how I feel about that. But to her credit, Eleanor was a voicemail trend setter, and you near to hear about it. I also ask Eleanor to rate the electoral college, skinny jeans, bowling, AirBnB, the CDC, the March Madness basketball tournament, and the idiom, "Don't beat around the bush." She also has some suggestions for the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historical Park in Atlanta.

Welcome back to the Compliance In Context Podcast! On today’s show, we welcome the return of former NSCP Board Chair and all-around compliance expert, Craig Watanabe, to analyze some recent comments from SEC Chair Gensler around cybersecurity, and reveal some practical tips firms can use to enhance the cybersecurity measures inside their own firms. In our Headlines section, we look at the new NSCP Firm and CCO Liability Framework and its broader application to the industry. And finally, we wrap up today’s show with another installment of What’s On My Mind where we examine what an 80s classic song from Mike and the Mechanics and the life of John Madden can teach us about being the best compliance officer and CCO for your respective firms. Headlines NSCP Firm and CCO Liability Framework Interview Reaction to SEC Chair Gensler’s Speech at Northwestern Pritzker School of Law’s Annual Securities Regulation Institute Reviewing “Twelve Tips for Teleworking Cybersecurity” in May 2020 edition of Currents What is the Windows 11 upgrade? Usability vs. Security What is the Trusted Platform Module? What are the best tips for cybersecurity and user awareness training? What is cyber hygiene? What are some other best practices you’ve seen in cybersecurity lately? How best to leverage cyber insurance and related expertise? What’s On My Mind? “Living Years” by Mike + The Mechanics The Life of John Madden Fastidious preparation as compliance coach Living with a sense of appreciation Quotes: “Cybersecurity is almost always at the top or near the top of the list in terms of risks and I think that’s going to be the case for some time for this foreseeable future so it’s going to be a big risk for everyone, a big risk for the industry.” – Craig Watanabe 10:12 - “I think Regulation SP is somewhat of a misnomer because the S stands for safeguarding and the P stands for privacy. But if you ask most people, ‘Reg SP?’ ‘Oh, yeah! Privacy.’ We kinda forget Section 30, which is the safeguarding part of the rule. And that’s where all cybersecurity regulation basically resides.” – Craig Watanabe “In the Fortress Model, the idea is you create this fortress. Everything on the inside of the fortress, all the interior is safe and you try to keep all the unknowns (all the bad stuff) out. That model works really well when you have a centralized work environment and you have a centralized IP. It’s a perfectly reasonable, very usable, and a very functional model. That model, however, doesn’t work as well in a remote or hybrid work environment.” – Craig Watanabe “I think there has been a paradigm shift at Microsoft and other big vendors, with an emphasis on security. That’s clear to me. I don’t think Microsoft would have done these things prior.” – Craig Watanabe Resources: Compliance in Context Contact Form Compliance in Context, LinkedIn Twitter: @compliancepod

Welcome back to the Securities Compliance podcast. In today’s episode, we discuss the recently adopted amendments to the Investment Adviser Marketing Rule and a new statement from the SEC alerting investors to a rising number of investment scams. For our interview segment, we welcome in former NSCP Chair and teleworking compliance expert Craig Watanabe to do a deep dive on how firms can best prepare their compliance programs for the increase in teleworking and the types of supervision, cybersecurity, and data privacy issues that are involved there. Finally, we’ll wrap up today’s show with another installment of the What’s On My Mind series, where we’ll look at the new DOL prohibited transaction exemption for investment advice fiduciaries and the greatest comedy centered around Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Headlines SEC Alerts Investors to Rising Number of Investment Scams SEC Adopts Amendments to Investment Adviser Marketing Rule Interview Review the trend toward decentralization and the impact of the pandemic Compliance challenges that teleworking introduced Fortress versus endpoint security model and teleworking cybersecurity Other tips and recommendations for teleworking cybersecurity Best practices for handling remote supervision Review of regulatory guidance for remote audits What’s on My Mind Groundhog Day, déjà vu, and the new DOL Prohibited Transaction Exemption for Investment Advice Fiduciaries Quotes: “And of course, our industry is no exception. We are seeing strong trends toward decentralization, which were evident as you mentioned, prior to the pandemic, but I think just got a huge kick forward with the pandemic and what I think is interesting is most experts believe that this trend will have a residual impact. In other words, when this pandemic is ultimately over, we probably will not go all the way back to baseline, pre-pandemic levels.” “And so the evolution that we are seeing is, we're seeing cybersecurity evolve from a fortress model to an endpoint security model.” “...Going over and above and being a great compliance department, I think that was all part and parcel of that idea of being not just a good compliance department, but being a great compliance department.” Resources: Compliance in Context
