This week’s guest is Rebecca Balebako, Founder and Principal Consultant at Balebako Privacy Engineer, where she enables data-driven organizations to build the privacy features that their customers love. In our conversation, we discuss all things privacy red teaming, including: how to disambiguate adversarial privacy tests from other software development tests; the importance of privacy-by-infrastructure; why privacy maturity influences the benefits received from investing in privacy red teaming; and why any database that identifies vulnerable populations should consider adversarial privacy as a form of protection.
We also discuss the 23andMe security incident that took place in October 2023 and affected over 1 mil Ashkenazi Jews (a genealogical ethnic group). Rebecca brings to light how Privacy Red Teaming and privacy threat modeling may have prevented this incident. As we wrap up the episode, Rebecca gives her advice to Engineering Managers looking to set up a Privacy Red Team and shares key resources.
