In the physical world, privacy violations are obvious. Digitally, they happen constantly and silently, data copied, indexed, reused and the person behind it rarely knows. For me, digital dignity is a design principle. Read my full thoughts here: https://t.co/SqpL0sMa5Z

Years ago, I booked a cruise and shared the usual personal details. We never went. Then, years later, I got a call from someone who knew everything — my preferences, offering to “reactivate” the booking. He wasn’t from the cruise company.

[Himanshu Shukla @HimanshuLB]

Nothing terrible happened, but the feeling stuck: I’d shared that data for one purpose, with one company, at one moment in my life. Now it was floating around, being used by people I’d never met. That’s when I started thinking about digital dignity.

Every CISO I talk to says the same thing: “I’m losing control.” Not from lack of tools, but from data moving faster than governance.
AI indexes customer data. Copilot surfaces card numbers.
No alert.

A moment that stuck with me early on:
An employee at a major bank emailed his own W-2 to himself. Every alarm went off.

Not because it was a breach.
But because the system couldn’t tell his data from customer data.
That’s a bigger problem than most tools admit.

We’ve optimized security around where data lives.

Control depends on something else: whose data it is, who’s accessing it, and whether that access makes sense right now.

Without that context, visibility ≠ control.

#DataPrivacy is a moving target. Traditional pattern matching goes so far but the real value is understanding who's data you have and where it's been and going. #LightBeam leverages #AI to piece together these fragments. Let the smarts do the heavy lifting https://t.co/NPCqWH8gy6
