The Saga of Trickbot
Here is a little story that should have made the evening news. Well, it’s actually kind of a big geopolitical story, but given 2020’s logarithmic growth in geopolitical story significance, perhaps even this one is just a bit too tame for prime-time coverage.

If there is one very important but under-appreciated point to make about complying with tough data security regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), it’s the importance of finding and classifying the personally identifiable information, or personal data as it’s referred to in the EU.
