Welcome to the newest addition to the Compliance Podcast Network, Compliance and Coronavirus. In this episode, I am joined by Gabe Gumbs. Gabe is the Chief Innovation Officer at Spirion. He leads the Spirion product team through strategic product development to create technologies that push data security forward in an increasingly complex digital world. Prior to his new position at Spirion, Gumbs held a range of positions in security technology, including VP of Product Management at Spirion. Other prior positions include VP of Product Strategy at STEALTHbits Technologies, and Director of Research and Products at WhiteHat Security. Gumbs also served on the Board of Advisors at eGRC.com.
In this episode, we consider some of the challenges around data in the age of Coronavirus. Gabe discusses some of the top questions he and his team are hearing from customers during this time of Coronavirus and economic dislocation around data privacy and data protection during the economic dislocation. Gabe observes that trends which were in play have been largely amplified as a result of Covid-19 and the attendant economic dislocation increased trends in cybersecurity compliance. We conclude with a discussion of Spirion’s Data Discovery Agent and it can assist companies at this point in time and into Q3 and Q4.

Ask Us Anything
Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance Podcast, co-hosted by Lisa Fine and Mary Shirley.
GWIC is back! This episode is dedicated to Mary and Lisa answering questions that they received as part of an “Ask Us Anything” call out for questions. They received questions in areas ranging from the origins and growth of the podcast, how guests are chosen, and podcast production. They were able to share some of the lessons they learned through this 1 1/2 year journey with “Great Women in Compliance,” and the experiences they had in their podcasting experience thus far.
They also discuss their views on whether a law degree is essential for compliance officers (spoiler alert: they do not think that is the case, and think a diverse team is the best option), and a discussion on how to address risks in different markets and our biggest surprises in COVID.
Mary and Lisa also enjoyed the opportunity to discuss what that have learned from their guests and now apply to their work and public speaking, and also some of the takeaways that had led to both personal and professional growth.
They also talk about upcoming discussions, including those about Black Lives Matter and the importance of diversity and leadership from the ethics and compliance community. And, last but not least, Lisa and Mary put an “ask me anything” question to the other.
Thank you to all who responded to the call and submitted thoughtful and varied questions, we loved the opportunity to interact with you.

Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast which takes a deep dive into a compliance related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. In this episode Matt Kelly and Tom Fox take another deep dive into the Wynn Monitor report. Today we consider the issues around third parties; including vendors in the Supply Chain and the rigor of the approval process and role of the corporate compliance function and CCO. We also discuss how customers and especially high rollers are treated.
