The most memorable quote from today's guest is that IT is Obsolete. Professor Andre Hinton who also works as a cyber Lead for the United States Air Force talks about the trend in acquisitions for cyber products within the leading agencies in the United States Government. He says when proposals come to them for any communications project that do not have Cyber Security as top priority, they go straight to the bottom of the stack. Our Government agencies have shifted their paradigm and now place Cyber Security as number one priority on their mission list.
Prof. Hinton is also a subject matter expert for the newly implemented Risk Management Framework (RMF). If you are looking to shift jobs or address the hottest issues in Cybersecurity today, you will want to hear what he has to say about RMF.
Thanks for Joining our Show today Prof. Hinton.

The Privacy of individual Medical records is something that should concern everyone. Medical records are the one thing we don't want just any company to have access too. Today's guest Mike Schmidt Suggest CEO of Ensemble Ventures is working on a new type of medical records exchange where the record owner has to give permission for each use of their record and then receives payment anytime a company would like to use their information for studies or analysis.
Imaging a “Pay me for my data” model vs today's landscape where every large company has a copy of your record. This would definitely change the way we think about privacy.
Thanks for joining today Mike, and we will all be looking for the Medical Record Exchange as soon as it is operational.
