As Michelle puts it, we’re living in an ‘innovation palooza’ right now. But, there’s still progress to be made. Michelle highlights how we can change the investment proposition to get more VCs and investors to see privacy is a strategic business enabler. At PrivacyCode, they’re focused on creating a simple way to communicate the language of ‘people data’ across specialities.
Part of the solution includes having a software bill of materials (SBOM), which is essentially a list of ingredients that make up software components. Michelle shares a tangible example of how an SBOM creates flow, compliance, and transparency in new areas of tech. She also touches on her consulting work, including her simple strategy for determining privacy benefit metrics.

Topics Covered:

Privacy as a strategic enabler
Why Michelle thinks "today's VCs are more of a mood than an algorithm"
How PrivacyCode allows users to orchestrate requirements across various departments and lets specialists operate in their "zone of genius"
What a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) is & why we need one to ensure privacy
Michelle's advice to privacy engineers on how to leverage an SBOM for quality code
Michelle's work at Privatus Consulting and their Wicked Privacy Framework
Examples of creative, straightforward privacy metrics
