I'm in the UK, so all of these companies are either primarily based in the EU, or do business here.
GDPR has put some fear back in, but even today there are loads of companies that simply don't give a shit, and will happily risk it all so that they don't have to adapt their practices from years ago. In my experience, smaller companies are the worst offenders, because they know they are small fry.
Pipdig are a UK company, and have been actively caught using malicious code with proof, yet they're still running without a care in the world. This all happened recently too, so it's not like it's a pre-GDPR or pre-ICO crackdown issue.
- ownagefool 7y agoI think CISOs are a bit more worried than they were before, but CFOs still refuse to pay for individuals. It's the old Capex vs Opex and random jealously that flies around the market, combined with a lack of skills that leads to outsourcing to consultancies that sell snake oil. It'll remain crap I imagine.
