According to Anshu, what we truly need is a security by default approach. We require systems that not only secure customer Personally Identifiable Information (PII) but also understand and handle the various types of workflows involving PII. This means implementing measures that go beyond mere protection and actively support the necessary tasks and operations involving sensitive data.

Skyflow has developed technology that addresses these challenges. Skyflow not only ensures the security of PII but also supports the specific workflows associated with it. By doing so, Skyflow's technology effectively insulates applications from the burdensome responsibility of managing customer data, allowing organizations to focus on their core business objectives.

Topics:

Are we getting better at protecting customer data or worse?
Why has the software industry failed at cybersecurity?
How do you think the trend towards increased regulation and oversight of the cybersecurity industry will impact the development and adoption of new security technologies?
What is security-by-default?
What are some of the tactics companies can use to build products that are secure-by-default?
How does this approach potentially change the culture of the company?
What’s an example of a company building products with security built-in?
What inspired you to start Skyflow, and how does your solution address the current challenges with cybersecurity in the software industry?
What is the key difference between what Skyflow offers and what’s historically been done by businesses for data protection?
How do you see the software industry evolving in terms of cybersecurity in the next few years, and what role do you think companies like Skyflow will play in this transformation?
What’s next for Skyflow?

In this episode, Anshu Sharma, CEO and co-founder of Skyflow highlights the alarming disparity between the millions of dollars companies invest in cybersecurity and the persistent occurrence of breaches and cyber attacks. Despite these hefty investments, current approaches to cybersecurity are simply not enough to protect customer data. It's like putting a bandaid on a broken arm - it might temporarily cover the problem, but it won't heal the underlying issue. According to Anshu, what we truly need is a security by default approach. We require systems that not only secure customer Personally Identifiable Information (PII) but also understand and handle the various types of workflows involving PII. This means implementing measures that go beyond mere protection and actively support the necessary tasks and operations involving sensitive data. Skyflow has developed technology that addresses these challenges. Skyflow not only ensures the security of PII but also supports the specific workflows associated with it. By doing so, Skyflow's technology effectively insulates applications from the burdensome responsibility of managing customer data, allowing organizations to focus on their core business objectives. Topics: Are we getting better at protecting customer data or worse? Why has the software industry failed at cybersecurity? How do you think the trend towards increased regulation and oversight of the cybersecurity industry will impact the development and adoption of new security technologies? What is security-by-default? What are some of the tactics companies can use to build products that are secure-by-default? How does this approach potentially change the culture of the company?

This has required many businesses to implement new processes and technologies to ensure compliance, such as appointing data protection officers, conducting privacy impact assessments, and implementing data subject access request processes. One particularly tricky situation to navigate for businesses is transatlantic data transfers. Transatlantic data transfers face numerous challenges, including differing legal frameworks and data protection standards between the European Union (EU) and the United States (US). These differences can create legal uncertainty and potential risks for companies that transfer personal data across the Atlantic. In particular, the invalidation of the EU-US Privacy Shield framework by the European Court of Justice in 2020 has left companies without a clear mechanism for transatlantic data transfers, highlighting the need for a new agreement that meets the requirements of both the EU and the US. Additionally, concerns about government surveillance and data breaches have further complicated the transatlantic data transfer landscape, underscoring the need for strong data protection measures and clear regulatory frameworks. Privacy and data protection writer and expert Robert Bateman, who has published over 1500 articles related to privacy, joins the show to breakdown the evolution of privacy regulations in Europe, the impact that’s had on businesses, and explain the challenges surrounding transatlantic data transfers. Topics: How have privacy regulations evolved and what impact have they had for businesses? Can you discuss some of the history of Meta challenges in Europe? How enforceable are the fines? Do companies actually end up paying the fines? What are the key concerns around transatlantic data transfers? How do the cultural differences between the US and EU impact their approach to privacy and what impact has this had? How do organizations ensure compliance with privacy laws when transferring data between the US and EU? EU and US data transfers. How do we make progress?

45:07

Zero trust infrastructure is an approach to security that requires all users, devices, and services to be authenticated and authorized before being granted access to resources. Unlike traditional security models that assume everything inside the network is trusted, zero trust assumes that all traffic is untrusted. In today's world, where cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated, Zero trust infrastructure is crucial for protecting sensitive data and preventing unauthorized access. Hashicorp is a company that provides a suite of tools for building and managing secure systems. Their products, such as Vault, Consul, and Boundary, can help organizations implement a zero trust approach to security. Vault is a tool for securely storing and managing secrets such as passwords, API keys, and certificates. It provides a centralized place to manage access to secrets and has several features to ensure the security of these secrets, such as encryption, access control, and auditing. Consul is a service discovery and configuration tool that provides a secure way to connect and manage services across different networks. It provides features such as service discovery, health checking, and load balancing, and can be integrated with Vault for secure authentication and authorization. Boundary is a tool for securing access to infrastructure and applications. It provides a secure way to access resources across different networks and can be integrated with Vault and Consul for secure authentication and authorization. Rosemary Wang, Developer Advocate at Hashicorp joins the show to explain zero trust infrastructure and how Vault, Consul, and Boundary help organizations build zero trust into their architecture.

The privacy landscape is changing. There is increasing consumer awareness and concern over the use of their personal data and there’s an ever growing list of privacy regulations that companies need to navigate. Regulations like GDPR, CCPA, and others carry stiff fines for companies that fail to comply with data deletion requests. However, actually being able to delete someone’s information from an existing system is more complicated than you might expect. Large systems have been developed over many years ignoring the potential impact of PII sprawl. As a consequence, user data is everywhere and no one actually knows all the locations it might exist in. A data privacy vault is an architectural approach to data privacy that helps address data deletion, mapping, and other data privacy challenges. A data privacy vault is an isolated, protected, single source of truth for customer PII. Lisa Nee, Compliance Officer United States, Data Privacy Legal Expert North America and Legal Advisor Americas for Atos and Robert Duffy Counsel for McDermott Will & Emery with a focus in privacy and cybersecurity have spent their careers working in privacy. They join the show to discuss why 2023 is the year of privacy, the impact that failing to delete data is having on businesses, and how a data privacy vault along with synthetic data are the keys to addressing these problems. Topics: Why is 2023 the year of privacy? What laws are out there to require deletion? What is data retention and why is it a risk for businesses? What is PII sprawl? What’s the cost of a violation to delete someone’s data? How do you fix this problem? How do you comply? What is a data vault? Where did you first learn about this concept?

۲ years پیش35:20

35:20

Privacy threat modeling is a structured approach to identifying and assessing potential privacy risks associated with a particular system, application, or process. It involves analyzing how personal data flows through a system, identifying potential vulnerabilities or weaknesses, and evaluating the potential consequences of a privacy breach. The goal of privacy threat modeling is to identify and prioritize potential privacy risks and to develop effective strategies for mitigating those risks. This process involves considering various aspects of the system or process being analyzed, including the data that is collected, how it is stored and processed, who has access to it, and how it is transmitted. Privacy threat modeling can help organizations better understand their privacy risks and make more informed decisions about how to protect personal data. Implementing privacy measures and conducting regular privacy threat modeling can help organizations minimize the risk of a privacy breach and ultimately save them money in the long run. Nandita Rao Narla, Head of Technical Privacy & Governance at DoorDash, joins the show to explain privacy threat modeling, the common misconceptions, and how to make a privacy threat model program successful. Topics: What is privacy threat modeling? How do you balance the need to collect and use data with the need to protect privacy, and what role does privacy threat modeling play in this process? Who typically owns this process in an organization? What are some of the typical approaches companies follow to privacy threat modeling? How should companies think about setting up a process to continually iterate and evolve the model? Once you’ve performed this process, how do you go about fixing the identified issues? What are some common misconceptions about privacy threat modeling, and how would you address those misconceptions? How do you determine which threats to prioritize when conducting privacy threat modeling, and what factors do you consider when making these decisions? How do you involve stakeholders (e.g. customers, employees, regulators) in the privacy threat modeling process, and what benefits do you see in doing so? What challenges have you encountered when conducting privacy threat modeling, and how have you overcome these challenges? How does privacy threat modeling differ from other types of risk assessments (e.g. security risk assessments), and what unique challenges does it present?

A data analytics pipeline is important to modern businesses because it allows them to extract valuable insights from the large amounts of data they generate and collect on a daily basis. This leads to better decision making, improved efficiency, and increased ROI. However, despite your best efforts, sensitive customer data tends to find its way into our analytics pipelines, ending up in our data warehouses and metrics dashboards. Replicating customer PII to your downstream services greatly increases your compliance scope and makes maintaining data privacy and security significantly more challenging. In this episode, Engineering Lead at Skyflow Piper Keyes joins the show to discuss what goes into building a privacy-aware data pipeline, what tools and technologies should you be using, and how Skyflow addresses this problem. Topics: What is a data analytics pipeline? What does it mean to build a privacy-aware data pipeline? Can you give some examples of use cases where privacy-aware data pipelines are particularly important? What’s it mean to de-identify data and how does that work? What are some common techniques used to preserve privacy in data pipelines? How does analytics work for de-identified data? How do you balance the need for data privacy with the need for actually being able to use the data? What’s it take to build a privacy-aware pipeline from scratch? What are some of the biggest challenges in building privacy-aware data pipelines? How does something like this work with Skyflow? Let’s say I have customer’s transactional data from Visa, how could I ingest that data into my data warehouse but avoid having to build PCI compliance infrastructure? Walk me through how that works. Could you build a machine learning model based on the de-identified data? Once I have the data in my warehouse, let’s say I needed to inform a clinical trial participant about an issue but I also want to maintain their privacy, how could I perform an operation like that?

Confidential Computing and Secure Enclaves with AWS’s Arvind Raghu 39:04

۲ years پیش39:04

39:04

For years engineers have relied on encryption at rest and transit to help protect sensitive data. However, historically data needs to be decrypted to actually use it, which risks the potential exposure of the underlying data. Confidential computing is a computing paradigm that aims to protect data in use, not just data in transit or at rest. The goal of confidential computing is to provide a secure computing environment where sensitive data can be processed without the risk of exposure or compromise. AWS Nitro Enclaves is a service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) that enables customers to create isolated compute environments within their Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances. In a Nitro Enclave, the application code and data are encrypted and processed inside the enclave, ensuring that they are protected from both the hypervisor and the host operating system. This makes Nitro Enclaves ideal for workloads that require a high level of security, such as confidential computing, secure machine learning, and blockchain-based applications. Arvind Raghu, Principal Specialist in EC2 and Confidential Computing at AWS, joins the show to explain confidential computing, AWS Nitro Enclaves, and the use cases this technology unlocks. Topics: What is confidential computing? What’s the motivation behind the investment in this technology? What are some of the problems this approach to privacy and security solves that were previously a potential vulnerability for companies? How does a hardware-based trusted execution environment prevent a bad actor from executing unauthorized code? How is the memory space protected? Can you explain how Nitro Enclaves enhance the security of confidential computing on AWS? What’s the process for using Nitro Enclaves versus a standard EC2 instance How do I go about using Nitro Enclave for performing an operation on sensitive data? What does the programming process look like to do that? What are some use cases that you’ve seen that you are particularly excited about? How can Nitro Enclaves be used to protect sensitive data in specific use cases, such as financial services or healthcare? Are there any limitations or trade-offs to consider when using Nitro Enclaves for confidential computing? What innovations or business directions do you think secure enclaves will enable in the future? What’s next for Nitro Enclaves? Anything you can share?

In this episode, Manish Ahluwalia, the field CTO of Skyflow, discusses the technical aspects of data residency and the usage of a data privacy vault. He explains the concept of data residency and data localization. He noted that with the increasing amount of data being generated and shared, it is becoming increasingly important for organizations to ensure that their data is being stored and processed in compliance with local laws and regulations. However, this is a technically challenging problem because data typically ends up all over the place and companies lose track of what and where they’re storing it. Ahluwalia then discussed the role of a data privacy vault in addressing data residency concerns. He explained that a data privacy vault is a secure, centralized repository for sensitive data that can be used to enforce data residency requirements. He also discussed how companies can use the data privacy vault to ensure that data is only accessed by authorized parties, and that the data is only used for specific purposes. He also explained that data privacy vaults can be used to track and audit data access, which can be useful for compliance and regulatory purposes. Topics: What is data residency? When did data residency requirements first start and what was the motivation behind their introduction? Why is this hard for companies from a technical perspective? How are companies solving this problem today? What technical solutions/options do they have at their disposal? What are the key technical considerations when designing a data architecture that meets data localization requirements? How does a data privacy vault help simplify complying with a data residency requirement? How do you ensure that data stays within the specified geographic boundaries during transfers and storage? In the scenario where there’s multiple vaults, one for each country with a data residency law, how does something like computing global analytics work? If I’m using a data privacy vault to meet data residency requirements, how does sharing data with third parties work? In the vault world, tokens are stored within the downstream services. How does a company control access to who or what can detokenize that data to retrieve the original value? What are your thoughts on the future of data privacy? Are the technical challenges of protecting customer data going to get easier? Resources: What is Data Residency & How Can a Data Privacy Vault Help?…

Historically, backup and recovery has been a job relegated to a junior person on the team. It’s the kind of grungy work that all companies know they should do, but no one wants to own it. As such, many companies have a poor backup and recovery posture and aren’t even sure they can recover from a disaster. Additionally, in recent years, homegrown backup systems have been the target of more and more ransomware and cyber attacks. Attackers target the backups, either deleting them completely and then attacking other parts of the system or steal the backups, break the encryption, and now have access to tons of company data. W. Curtis Preston has been working in backup and disaster recovery for nearly 30 years and has written five books on the subject. He joins the show to discuss backup and recovery missteps, best practices, and how Druva, the SaaS-based backup and recovery platform helps businesses offload backup responsibility. Topics: How did you get interested in the field of data protection and disaster recovery, and what sparked your passion for it? What are some common mistakes that organizations make when it comes to data backup and recovery? What’s the relationship between backups, data protection, and cybersecurity? What’s the best practices around backing up personal user data, like account data or perhaps other sensitive data? What are the common ways data loss happens for organizations? How can organizations ensure that their data is secure and protected during the backup and recovery process?

Inside PCI DSS and Privacy for Payments with Skyflow’s Bjorn Ovick 49:10

۳ years پیش49:10

49:10

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is an information security standard for organizations that handle branded credit cards from the major card schemes. It was introduced to create a level of protection for card issuers by ensuring that merchants meet minimum levels of security when they store, process, and transmit cardholder data and ultimately reduce fraud. Merchants that wish to accept payments need to be PCI compliant. Without PCI compliance, the merchant not only risks destroying customer trust in the case of a data breach, but they risk fines and potentially being stopped from being able to accept payments. Payment processors like Stripe, Adyen, Braintree, and so on, help offload PCI compliance by providing PCI compliant infrastructure available through simple APIs. Bjorn Ovick, Head of Fintech at Skyflow, formerly of Wells Fargo, Visa, Samsung, and American Express, holds over 20 patents related to payment applications. He joins the show to share his background, thoughts on the evolution of technology in this space, break down PCI DSS, payment processors, and how Skyflow helps not only offload PCI compliance but gives businesses flexibility to work with multiple payment processors. Topics: Can you share a bit about your background and how did you end up working in the financial industry? You also have over 20 patents for payment applications, what are some of those patents? So you are Head of Fintech Business and Growth at Skyflow, what does that consist of and how did you come to work at Skyflow? Can you talk a bit about the evolution and change of the fintech market from when you started your career to today? What is PCI DSS and where did it come from? How does a company achieve PCI DSS compliance? What’s a company’s responsibilities with respect to PCI compliance? What's it take to build out PCI compliant infrastructure? What happens if you violate PCI compliance? How do you offload PCI compliance and still accept payments? What is PCI tokenization? What patterns do you see in payments and what should someone consider as they build their payment stack? Why would a merchant use multiple payment processors? How does a company use multiple payment processors? What is network tokenization and how does that improve privacy and security? What is 3D secure? What are the big gaps in terms of payment processing today? What problems still need to be solved? Where do you see the payment technology industry going in the next 5-10 years?

Building a Secure CI/CD Pipeline with Google’s Anjali Khatri and Nitin Vashishtha 53:17

۳ years پیش53:17

53:17

DevOps is a concept that has exploded in the past few years, allowing software development teams to release software and automate the process. This decreases time to market and speeds up learning cycles. Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), automates the software delivery pipeline, continuously deploying new software releases in an automated fashion. But when we deploy code quickly, it's imperative that we don't ignore the security aspect from the beginning. Ideally, we shift security left and incorporate it into the pipeline right from the start. This reduces software vulnerabilities and makes sure our cloud resources are configured following the best practices in terms of security. Google Cloud Principle Architect Anjali Khatri and Google Cloud Solutions Engineer Nitin Vashishtha join the show to discuss DevOps, DevSecOps, the shift left movement, and how to use Google Cloud to create a secure CI/CD pipeline. Topics: How has the cloud changed the way people need to think about architecting secure systems? How does the scale of cloud potentially impact the scale of a security or privacy issue? What is DevOps? Why is this area so hot right now? What problems has the DevOps movement helped solve that were traditionally difficult or impossible to address? How does the Shift Left movement for security relate to what’s happening in DevOps? What is DevSecOps? How does DevSecOps fit into a company’s overall security and privacy program and strategy? When it comes to things like CI/CD, what are the common mistakes people can make when it comes to security, privacy, or compliance? Cloud Build is a serverless CI/CD platform, why do I need something beyond this to automate my pipeline? What other Cloud tools and components should I be using to make sure my CI/CD system is not only able to support my team’s day to day development but is actually secure? Can you talk about Artifact Registry and what that product means in terms of security? How does Cloud’s Binary Authorization system work? Why would I use it and how does that improve my security posture? Does the addition of security as part of say my CI/CD pipeline impact performance in a meaningful way? Can you walk me through what the CI/CD process looks like using the combination of Cloud tools and resources? How much knowledge and experience do I need to set this up? How does a combination of tools like this play with configuring Cloud resources directly within the Google Cloud Console? Are there Cloud products that help me lock down my source code?

Why We Need to Get Rid of Passwords with Passage’s Nick Hodges 36:23

۳ years پیش36:23

36:23

Passwords have been around since the 1960s and as a means to keep someone out of a non-connected terminal, they were relatively secure. The scale of a compromised system was relatively low. But the world has changed drastically in that time. Every computer is connected to a massive network of other computers. The impact scale of a compromised password is multiple times more problematic than it was even 30 years ago, yet we continue to rely on passwords as a security means to protect account information. Security means like longer passwords, more complicated schemes, no dictionary words, and even two-factor authentication have had limited success with stopping hacks. Additionally, each of these requirements adds friction to a user accomplishing their task, whether that's to buy a product, communicate with friends, or login to critical systems. WebAuthN is a standard protocol for supporting passwordless authentication based on a combination of a user identifier and biometrics. Consumers can simply login via their email and using their thumb print on their phone or relying on facial recognition on their device. Passwordless authentication not only reduces frictions for users, but it removes a massive security vulnerability, the password. Nick Hodges, Developer Advocate at Passage, joins the show to share his knowledge and expertise about the security issues with traditional passwords, how passwordless works and addresses historical security issues, and how Passage.id can be used to quickly create a passwordless authentication systems for your product. Topics: What’s the problem with passwords? Why have passwords stuck along so long? What’s it mean to go passwordless? What is a passkey and how do they work? How does the privacy and security of a passkey compare to a standard password? A Passkey is stored within the Trusted Platform Module of a phone. What happens if someone steals my phone? What happens if I upgrade my device? Do my passkeys come with me? What are the potential security risks or limitations of passkey based login? What if I don’t have my phone? Can I still login? Can you share an account with someone else? How does that work? When a business switches over to using a passkey approach, what’s the reaction from their customers? Is there a big educational challenge to convince companies to ditch passwords? Why is a passkey approach to login not more widely adopted? What’s stopping mainstream use? What is Passage and how is helping businesses go passwordless? Who’s your typical customer? Startups just building their auth system or are people replacing existing systems for this approach? What’s it take to get started? How hard would it be for me to rip out my existing authentication and adopt Passage? What are your thoughts on the future of passwords and password security?

Differential privacy provides a mathematical definition of what privacy is in the context of user data. In lay terms, a data set is said to be differentially private if the existence or lack of existence of a particular piece of data doesn't impact the end result. Differential privacy protects an individual's information essentially as if her information were not used in the analysis at all. This is a promising area of research and one of the future privacy-enhancing technologies that many people in the privacy community are excited about. However, it's not just theoretical, differential privacy is already being used by large technology companies like Google and Apple as well as in US Census result reporting. Dr. Yun Lu of the University of Victoria specializes in differential privacy and she joins the show to explain differential privacy, why it's such a promising and compelling framework, and share some of her research on applying differential privacy in voting and election result reporting. Topics: What’s your educational background and work history? What is differential privacy? What’s the history of differential privacy? Where did this idea come from? How does differential privacy cast doubt on the results of the data? What problems does differential privacy solve that can’t be solved by existing privacy technologies? When adding noise to a dataset, is the noise always random or does it need to be somehow correlated with the original dataset’s distribution? How do you choose an epsilon? What are the common approaches to differential privacy? What are some of the practical applications of differential privacy so far? How is differential privacy used for training a machine learning model? What are some of the challenges with implementing differential privacy? What are the limitations of differential privacy? What area of privacy does your research focus on? Can you talk a bit about the work you did on voting data privacy How have politicians exploited the data available on voters? How can we prevent privacy leakage when releasing election results? What are some of the big challenges in privacy research today that we need to try to solve?

Encryption Key Management and Its Role in Modern Data Privacy with Skyflow’s Osvaldo Banuelos 22:09

۳ years پیش22:09

22:09

When managing your company’s most sensitive data, encryption is a must. To fit your overall data protection strategy, you need a wide range of options for managing your encryption keys so you can generate, store, and rotate them as needed. The risk of sensitive data being misused or stolen can be limited, as long as just the people (and services) who are authorized to access data for approved purposes can access the key. Without proper management of encryption keys robust encryption techniques can be rendered ineffective. So, while encryption is a core feature of any effective data privacy solution, encryption only enhances data privacy when paired with effective key management. Osvaldo Banuelos, lead software engineer at Skyflow, joins the show to share his knowledge and expertise about encryption key management and its role in modern data privacy. Topics: Can you share some of your background from where you started your engineering career to where you are today? How did you end up with an interest in working in the data privacy space? And what’s your work history in this space? What are the fundamentals of encryption? How do you protect against the key being leaked and rendering encryption ineffective? What is an encryption key management system? What are the components of an effective key management system? How often should a key be rotated and does a KMS provide that functionality out of the box? How does key rotation work? Who within an organization is typically responsible for key management? What are some of the popular KMS systems on the market today? From a feature perspective, are they all the same or are their pros and cons to one over the other? How does key management work in Skyflow? When it comes to data privacy, you likely want to protect your customer data using encryption and to do that effectively, you need a robust key management system. Is this enough or are there other technologies a company would need to incorporate to have an effective privacy and compliance strategy? What are the big gaps in data privacy today?

With a data privacy vault, a company is making the architectural decision to move their sensitive customer data out of their existing infrastructure and into a vault. The vault is isolated and protected, becoming the single source of truth for all sensitive customer PII, effectively de-scoping existing systems from the responsibilities of compliance, data security, and data privacy. The data privacy vault makes the principles of privacy by design actionable, creating a system for engineers to implement the principles in the form of privacy by architecture. Topics covered: How did you end up with an interest in working in the data privacy space Why should companies care about privacy? Why is privacy hard for companies? What is a data privacy vault? Where did this technology come from? How does the data privacy vault help with things like data security and compliance? How is this different from just a dedicated encrypted database for PII? Why haven't more companies built their own vaults? Why is an API the right way to deliver this technology? How does the vault facilitate data utility while still protecting the data?
