For many companies, GDPR has become a four-letter acronym.
The European Union’s new General Data Protection Rule – which applies to virtually any kind of data that can be used to identify a person – goes into effect May 25. And companies around the world are rushing to make sure they’re in compliance, or at least can demonstrate that they’re hard at work trying to meet the EU demands.
GDPR is designed to protect personal privacy, (hopefully) make companies more secure from data breaches and force them to get their collective hands around all the data they collect, use and distribute.
CSO's Michael Nadeau and Steve Ragan join Computerworld's Ken Mingis and IDG Communications' Mark Lewis to look at what the new EU privacy rules means. They offer insights on how companies can prepare – and what happens if they don't.

LocationSmart, a U.S. based company that acts as an aggregator of real-time data about the precise location of mobile phone devices, has been leaking this information to anyone via a buggy component of its Web site — without the need for any password or other form of authentication or authorization — KrebsOnSecurity has learned.

We just got a smattering of patches that seem to be in the “Oh yeah, we forgot” bucket. Windows 7 and 8.1 received Previews (which you should never install, of course). Win10 1607 (out of support for Home and Pro on April 10) and 1703 got the usual laundry list of minor fixes.
I bet Win10 1709 and 1803 updates will be out soon.
Here’s the roundup:
KB 4103713 – Win7 Monthly Rollup preview. Doesn’t solve the network driver uninstallation bug, but does add a new “SMB1 access auditing on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.” You have to turn on the auditing with a registry change.
