2022 in Review

Hidden Traffic Podcast host Gwen Hassan reviews the year’s developments in human trafficking prevention and shares what’s next on the podcast.

This year has seen a rise in human trafficking and climate change refugees. The United Nations International Labor Organization (ILO) reported that there are 50 million people across the world who are currently being held in some form of modern slavery. Notable news stories around human trafficking include the Uyghur Forced Labor Protection Act coming into play and allegations against Tesla for sourcing their cobalt from child labor.

A major issue in the corporate world coined the ‘Green Push,’ is the neglect of the ‘S’ in ESG. You can’t make the world better environmentally by reducing carbon output and addressing climate change issues while also enslaving children, Gwen remarks.

No Comments on Sullivan Conviction from GDPR Perspective

Jonathan Armstrong and Tom Fox return for another episode of the award-winning Life with GDPR. In this episode, we discuss the recent conviction of Joe Sullivan, former CISO at Uber, for his role in hiding a data breach that hit the company. Sullivan was convicted in the US in October 2022 in connection with an investigation into a ransomware attack on Uber in 2016. However, we look at the conviction from the GDPR and UK perspective and ask whether it portends potential liability for CISOs and CCOs in the EU and UK. For instance, does this mean there are likely to be more prosecutions against executives? And could we see similar prosecutions in Europe? For a more detailed discussion and links to the case, check out the Cordery Compliance News Alert on the case, which you can find in the link below.

Some of the highlights include:

1. What were the facts?

2. Was Sullivan guilty of negligence or intentional conduct?

3. Why were prior Uber convictions so significant?

4. What happens next?

5. Could this lead to more prosecutions of executives?

6. What does this mean under GDPR and in the UK?
