October and November in Compliance Week

Welcome to From the Editor’s Desk, a podcast where co-hosts Tom Fox and Kyle Brasseur, EIC at Compliance Week, unpack some of the top stories which have appeared in Compliance Week over the past month, look at top compliance stories upcoming for the next month, talk some sports and generally try to solve the world’s problems.

In this month’s episode, we look back at top stories in CW from October around the Lafarge criminal action, the former Uber CISO convicted criminally for attempting to hide a data breach, and the agreement between Google and the DOJ for the company to create a position of a legal compliance monitor. We previewed some of the stories CW will look at in November, including the current state of SEC rulemaking, and Kyle teased out some findings from the CW ‘Inside the Mind of the CCO’ survey, which recently concluded.

We conclude with a look at some of the top sports stories, including a look at a Red Sox fan’s view of the 2022 World Series, ask about a quarterback controversy in New England and overreact to the first week of the NBA season.
