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.

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.
