Virtual Coffee with Consulting: What on Earth is Going on with ChatGPT and What Does it Have to do with IG?
ChatGPT is just one of many ventures pushing the boundaries of large language models and AI. The technology is fascinating, but ChatGPT isn’t the only example. And clearly, the sexiness of the name isn’t what propelled ChatGPT into popular consciousness. Going from an unknown term to mainstream consciousness in less than a month is no mean feat. How did it happen? And what are the implications for information governance professionals?
Guest panelist John Mancini, a renowned author, speaker, information governance expert, and former president of AIIM, joins Jennifer Chadband and...

Records and Information Management & Information Security – Two Risk-Mitigation Peas in an Information Governance Pod
Integration is often central to effective information governance. This includes integrated policies, processes, strategies, controls, and technologies. Some of the biggest obstacles to integration are often organizational silos—separations of departments, people, and functions that can hinder the flow of information and how it’s managed. Bringing together two groups whose organizational silos may be impeding a meaningful relationship, however, can help improve the flow of information and its management. Information security (IS) professionals, meet records and information management (RIM) professionals. You two have a lot in common, and I think you could be great friends.

Data security breaches continue to pose real threats to organizations, and with incidents continuing to trend upward, 2023 will likely be another record-breaking year for data security intrusions.

Recent Data Breaches Prompt Big Changes in Australian Privacy Penalties
Recent Data Breaches Prompt Big Changes in Australian Privacy Penalties
Two massive data breaches exposing the personal information of millions of Australians rocked the country—one in September and another in October— prompting Australia’s parliament to swiftly respond with dramatic increases to penalties allowable under its Privacy Act.
In September, telecom company Optus made public news of a cyber-attack that had compromised its customers’ data—9.8 million customers, to be more precise. The data included names, addresses, phone numbers, and dates of birth. For some customers, more sensitive information was exposed that included driver’s license, passport, and even Medicare ID numbers.
Data and Discovery: What You Don’t Know Can Hurt You
BOISE, Idaho — In a sea of electronic information, constant online connectedness, social media, remote work, and globalization that subjects companies to varied multinational legislation, companies always are vulnerable to litigation and regulatory investigation.
By one account, as of 2017, almost two-thirds of medium- to large-sized businesses faced more than 25 legal and regulatory matters per year. And when these matters arise, at least some amount of legal discovery is virtually inescapable. Potentially relevant information must immediately be identified and put on legal hold—that is, marked for preservation until the matter’s resolution. Many companies likely have legal hold processes...
