Read moreIf you’ve ever participated in an organized sport, you’re likely well aware of the importance of context when it comes to evaluating your performance as a player. Say, for example, I play soccer every weekend (which I do). Let’s imagine I’m arguably the best defender on my team - or even across all the recreational players involved (it’s fun to pretend). I might start feeling pretty good about myself, and how I perform on the pitch. Now imagine I’m suddenly pulled into an MLS game, playing against professionals in the field.

Once an incident has been discovered, the clock starts ticking. Privacy officers and their teams must immediately investigate the incident, perform a multi-factor risk assessment according to all applicable jurisdictions to determine if the incident rises to the level of a data breach, and notify affected individuals, regulators, and authorities — often within a very short time frame. It can be a daunting task, compounded by the need to keep up with an ever-changing patchwork of data breach regulations, both enacted and proposed, each with their own unique requirements.
Read moreWe live in a world of measurements, from batting averages to number of steps walked to miles per gallon. Measuring our performance against certain standards or that of others—in other words, benchmarking—gives us a line in the sand from which we determine how and where to improve.
