Check out our Intelligence Practice Lead Michael Vintr’s recent podcast appearence, in which he discusses both our work at Prescient and broader trends in the risk and intelligence space.
🚨 New Episode Alert! 🚨 I am thrilled to announce the launch of the 6th episode of Compliance Talks at the Prague University of Economics and Business – your go-to destination for deep dives into compliance, business ethics and risk management! 🎙️ In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing a very special guest: Michael Vintr. Michael is a seasoned compliance and risk intelligence professional at Prescient and a co-founder/director of the non-profit PRINCEPS Risk Intelligence Institute. His experience spans managing compliance and risk for various organizations, and his insights are truly invaluable. 🕵️♂️ We covered a lot of ground in our conversation! Some of the thought-provoking highlights include: 🔍 What exactly is Risk Intelligence? Is it just a fancy term, or is there more to it compared to traditional risk management? 🌐 The Challenge of Online Information – Finding details about people and companies online seems easy, but what are the nuances, and how reliable is the information? 🛡️ Where does Risk Intelligence fit in scenarios like pre-employment background checks? And why are "data quality" and "data protection" critical to today’s businesses? 🗑️ "Garbage in, garbage out" – How does this saying apply to compliance and risk management? 💼 "Compliance and risk management are often seen as a luxury, not a necessity." Why is this perspective still prevalent, and what are the potential risks of such an approach? 🧢 Wearing Multiple Hats in Compliance – Is this approach sustainable, or does it lead to more risks? 🔒 Digital and Physical Security – What does it mean to someone who has studied international security? 💡 "Prevention is always cheaper than reaction." Agree? 👣 Your Online Footprint – Have you ever considered the risks of sharing personal information online? 🕵️♂️ Dark Web Monitoring and Executive Digital Protection – What do these have to do with compliance? And so much more! 🚀 💬 Michael also shared some powerful insights on who is leading the industry from a compliance and risk management perspective and how companies can leverage compliance to build public trust. And for a fun twist, we even discussed the infamous Fyre Festival and its compliance lessons! 🎬🔥 The full episode is now available on Spotify: https://lnkd.in/eShNp7CA. Enjoy and if you are passionate about compliance and risk management, or just curious to learn more, be sure to subscribe and never miss an episode! Do you have questions, thoughts, or topics you would like me to cover in future episodes? Drop them in the comments or feel free to reach out! 📥 Until then, stay compliant and keep learning! ✨ #ComplianceTalks #Podcast #RiskManagement #Compliance #BusinessEthics #CorporateGovernance #DigitalSecurity #DataProtection #PublicTrust #PreventionBetterThanCure Faculty of International Relations /Prague University of Economics and Business/

Check out "Influencers and Digital Protection," a blog written by our Clarissa L. in partnership with ASIS International. "The boundaries between cyber security and physical security are becoming incredibly blurred." #executiveprotection #cyberintelligence #protectiveintelligence #osint
“Influencers and Digital Protection.” The boundaries between cyber security and physical security are becoming progressively blurred. Influencers are subjected to privacy breaches just as anyone else with an online presence. However, they can be disproportionately vulnerable to breaches due to the sheer quantity and frequency of information they share publicly. Hear more from Clarissa Lopez, a senior associate at Prescient. https://lnkd.in/epFdvzgb #security #securityprofession #womeninsecurity
