Listen "Data Breaches: 10 Pitfalls & why caring for our data matters"
Episode Synopsis
* WARNING: This podcast includes reference to suicide, please contact www.samaritans.org if you are affected by this.*
In this episode the Office of the Data Protection Authority's Senior Investigator, Ed Chapman, talks to Kirsty Bougourd about why we should all be so careful with personal data - whether it’s ours or someone else’s. Ed leads the ODPA’s investigations into data breaches and sees first-hand the effect of a breach on the person whose personal data is involved, and also helps uncover how the breach occurred.
He talks about how we can all become complacent with personal data and lose sight of its incredible value, and how intrinsically it is linked to who we are. Ed also discusses how easy it can be to unintentionally cause a breach to occur and why following some simple steps can help prevent them from happening.
In early 2023 the ODPA published a document, written by Ed, explaining the Top 10 Common Pitfalls seen when handling people's data, and the practical steps that can be taken to mitigate them.
As well as talking about the importance of personal data, Ed and Kirsty discuss these pitfalls and explain the reasoning behind some of them in more detail.
