Ep 16 | Invasion of the Body & Mind (Data) Snatchers

Live on Cyber

While Julie’s away, Stan and his guest SecureTheVillage Board Member Alexa McCulloch, riff on the security of our health and wellness information. Whether it’s the data on your Fitbit or the search terms you enter on a hospital’s website, a lot of our private health and wellness information isn’t protected by HIPAA … and even what is, may still end up in the hands of the data brokers.

This week’s podcast is a preview of a hard-hitting webinar Alexa will be moderating on May 25th titled Invasion of the Body & Mind (Data) Snatchers. With her guests René Quashie, Vice President, Digital Health at the Consumer Technology Association and Felix Bustos, CEO and co-founder of ZB Technologies, Alexa will probe how our most sensitive and private information slips through the cracks in our privacy.

Join Alexa and Stan for an overview of some of the challenges we the people have keeping our information private in a system with little regulation, with consumers forced to accept Terms and Conditions full of dense legal jargon, and with a thriving market for the collection and sale of health and wellness data.

And please register for SecureTheVillage’s webinar Invasion of the Body & Mind (Data) Snatchers, moderated by Alexa McCulloch. The webinar airs May 25th at 11AM PT.
