Holiday spending always gets the best of me. The gifts, the food, the Christmas tree and decorations — sandwiched between two monthly rent payments — siphon money from my bank account.

When we talk about “compliance and security," most companies want to ensure that steps are being taken to protect what they value most – people, data, real or personal property, intellectual property, digital assets, or any other number of other things - and it’s more important than ever that safeguards are in place.

by Jeff Sovern. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Representative Katie Porter may be dropped from the House Financial Services Committee.  As someone who has regularly listened to House Financial Services Committee hearings on consumer matters for years, I believe that would be a huge loss.

Communication is a core component of a resilient organization's risk management framework. However, risk communication involves more than just reporting information and populating dashboards, and we may be limiting our skillset.
