#160 Much harm, but no foul? Breaking down the privacy regulator's Qantas data breach ruling (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Typically, when we're discussing the lessons to be learned about a cyber or privacy incident, we’re working backwards from a negative ruling. In this episode, we discuss the OAIC's favourable ruling about Qantas' mid-2025 cyber-related data breach that affected millions of customers. While the OAIC's investigation largely clears Qantas of wrongdoing, the report highlights plenty of lessons for organisations seeking to understand what the regulator expects when it comes to taking "reasonable step
#159 Cyber breakout - What frontier AI means for cyber risk (part two) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
*** This is part two of our two-part series on how frontier AI is reshaping cyber risk. See part one here: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/158-cyber-breakout-what-frontier-ai-means-for-cyber/id1616386… *** Over recent weeks a wave of disclosures have lit up the technology industry about the prospect of "rogue AI".

In turns out that, while the technologies behind this disr
#157 AI pendulum - How Pope Leo, Trump and the Australian public have swung sentiment (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week we check in on what we've previously called the "AI pendulum" - the swing between a pro-safety, pro-regulation instinct that marked AI conversations a couple of years ago to the hands-off, innovation-first mindset dominating the last 12 months. Recent events indicate the pendulum may be swinging back towards a more cautious and considered view of AI. The most striking incursion came from the Vatican, with Pope Leo XIV issuing "Magnifica Humanitas" a 42,000-word encyclical on the moral
#156 False choice, real harm - how power asymmetries and dark patterns erode privacy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode we break down the OAIC's determination against Australia's largest rental technology platform ("RentTech") 2Apply. After a year-long investigation, Privacy Commissioner Carly Kind found that 2Apply collected personal information far beyond what was reasonably necessary, and via means deemed unfair. The ruling is another example of the Commissioner's more assertive enforcement posture. Noting the challenges in the housing market facing renters, we unpack how this determination mig
