We Meet: Ishan Girdhar, CEO/Privva
About the Episode: Ishan Girdhar speaks on some best practices today with trusting other companies with your personal and professional information. Learn how to tell if the company is being secure with their data, and how they need to hold themselves accountable for breaches.
About Ishan: A born entrepreneur, Ishan has always looked for ways to make things work better. So when he found himself in a vendor role in a previous business venture, he immediately recognized the bulky nature and time investment involved when companies tried to tackle the complexities of cybersecurity data flowing downstream internally. As data breaches and hacks became the norm, Ishan saw a need for third-party risk management solutions that would not only be easier to implement but ubiquitous to companies of varying sizes. Taking these insights, he went on to found Privva in 2016. He did this with the conviction that Vendor Risk Management is a more effective and efficient undertaking for small to mid-range businesses when the platform is easy to use and has an interface that requires no integrations for quick deployment. While focused on empowering small to mid-range-sized businesses to take control of their security, Privva’s Vendor Risk Management dashboard is a sound and powerful cybersecurity tool capable of serving any size enterprise.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
