Links to My Work My Weblog for IT compliance Realtime Publishers asked me to host a "blog" where I post my views on IT compliance issues. I also invite industry leaders to participate in virtual roundtable discussions on topics, such as whether regulations have helped information security. Readers can add their point of view to my posts.
Privacy Breach Impact Calculator How much could a customer privacy breach impact your business? Most businesses are not aware of the many factors that can contribute to the financial impact of a data privacy breach. This calculator, based on the expanded one I created for the Privacy Management Toolkit Version 1, provides an example of some of the items an organization should consider when creating breach incident response and notification plans, and estimating the potential business impacts of a data privacy breach. The expanded Privacy Breach Impact Calculator within my toolkit includes an additional 15 items that should be considered. It is a great tool that can be used to raise the awareness of what the true, long-lasting costs, of a privacy breach really can be.
Other Interesting Links Recent Privacy Breaches There are other great web sites detailing privacy breaches, but what I really like about this site is that Nymity provides some in-depth analysis of each of the recent privacy breaches that they list. The analysis provides guidance to organizations to help them learn from the breach and to mitigate privacy risk in their organization. This analysis is really great not only for creating your own case studies for training and awareness communications, but you can also use it within your management reports when you are explaining the need for security controls and privacy protections.
Latest Privacy Studies I really love this page! Sometimes it takes me what seems like an eternity to find recent studies about specific privacy issues. Nymity provides not only pointers to the studies, but also analysis that provides guidance to organizations to help them learn from the study and to mitigate privacy risk in their own organizations.
