Every Thursday we'll alarm you with an incredible interview series with host Sean O'Rourke. He brings on guests that he finds fascinating and interesting to tackle “did you know that” questions that will astonish you!
Is Your Business Subject To Cyber Laws? with Diane Reynolds
“People ask me all the time, 'What keeps you up at night?' And I say, 'Spicy Mexican food, weapons of mass destruction, and cyberattacks.'” Dutch Ruppersberger
If you’re reading this (hopefully as you’re watching the episode), then your life and data have been impacted by multiple cyber events in the last decade or so. Welcome to the reality of technology in the 21st Century.
While it took a while, politicians recognized their voting base was under attack and decided to act in the way they knew best – passing regulations. The European Union, Brazil, and China all have extensive cyber regulations with provisions that extend beyond their geographic borders. The United States has some national laws specific to particular industries, but most cyber rules are handled at the state level. It’s a hodgepodge that has business swimming in alphabet soup.
That’s why the next guest on Did You Know That? is such an in-demand resource. Diane D. Reynolds has been dealing with cyber regulations, on a global scale, for a good portion of her career. She is who you call to help guide your business through the maze of regulations and compliance, and inevitably, in response to a cyber incident. Our chat focuses on why all businesses are now subject to some sort of regulation and how to proceed from there.

How Do You Insure Cyber Resilience? with Judy Selby
“Rather than fearing or ignoring cyberattacks, do ensure your cyber resilience to them.” Stephane Nappo
In a few decades, historians will write tomes explaining how the world evolved into its current state based on the 366 days that made up 2020. Among the digital pages will be lessons learned during the intervening years and the mistakes repeated. Those in the technology arena don’t have the luxury of learning lessons over time or of repeated mistakes.
The next guest on Did You Know That? understands the perils of technology, but she’s more interested in how companies protect themselves from those perils. Judy Selby is an attorney with a specialty in cyber insurance (a subject with which I’m familiar). Our conversation is about how businesses prepare for the inevitable cyber event and how they can thrive after being hit. This is a must-watch/listen.

Is Your Business Cyber Prepared? with Rebecca Rakoski
“No longer are technology and cyber issues confined to tech geeks in some backroom. In the digital age, IT issues are front and center.” Will Hurd
During my 25+ years in and around technology, the most common refrain from those on the business side of a company when it came to cyber was, “It’s an IT problem.” That is not the case any longer. Your IT folks have to be involved in the discussion, but cyber is most definitely a business problem now. Don’t believe me? Maybe my next guest on Did You Know That? can convince you.
Rebecca Rakoski is a founding partner of XPAN Law Partners, a practice primarily dedicated to their client’s cyber welfare. Our conversation focuses on what that means for businesses; some best practices required to stay in “compliance;” and a host of other elements of a cyber program.
