  • In this episode, Mark Read (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-read-/), Head of Data Breach Solutions at TransUnion UK, talks to George Chaisty (https://kennedyslaw.com/en/our-people/people/manchester/george-chaisty/), a Partner at the international law firm Kennedys Law LLP, and Cameron Carr (https://www.mullen.law/people/cameron-carr/), Managing Partner for Mullen Coughlin, to get a better understanding of the current cyber threat landscape.
    Off the back of a busy 2023 and with Mark attending February’s IAPP Data Protection Intensive 2024 event in London, the first part of this podcast reflects on the dominant and emerging methods being used by threat actors. Cameron, Mark and George use this scene setting as an entry point into the recent Royal United Services Institute, (RUSI) paper which explores the harms caused by ransomware to individuals, organisations and society (https://www.rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/occasional-papers/ransomware-victim-insights-harms-individuals-organisations-and-society).
    RUSI is the world’s oldest and the UK’s leading defence and security think tank, and this document is an important industry talking point. Our experts discuss the psychological impact ransomware can have on individuals directly (first-order harms) and indirectly (secondary-order harms) and address key issues that businesses need to consider when mitigating a cyber incident that includes breach fatigue, impact on front line staff and customer care.
    We wrap up with insights into what industry professionals can expect to see from threat actors in the coming year and identify the resources that will need to be carefully marshalled in response to these threats.

  • With bad actors using sophisticated technology and PII they’ve amassed online, establishing trust and detecting risk is increasingly challenging. This episode, clipped from our panel discussion, 'A Modern Identity Crisis: How The Digital Age Blurs The Lines Between Trust, Risk and Authenticity' (at the TransUnion FUTURE Summit 2023) takes a deep dive into the latest fraud trends.

    * Glyn Cowlishaw, Head of UK Fraud and Identity Pre-Sales, TransUnion

    Topics include emerging fincrime and cybercrime threats, such as no intent to pay, money mules, organised 3rd party fraud and targeted online attacks, and how consumer attitudes towards online crime are evolving. The panellists share the patterns they're seeing emerge across sectors and outline forward-thinking strategies that can help improve performance and enable businesses and consumers transact with confidence.

  • In this episode, Mark Read, head of data breach solutions at TransUnion UK, talks to George Chaisty, a partner at the legal firm Kennedys Law LLP. George is part of Kennedys’ cyber and data risk team, and advises clients on a broad range of cyber incidents including ransomware and business email compromises.
    Using our recently published e-book Data Breach for Businesses (https://www.transunion.co.uk/lp/breach-ebook) as a starting point, Mark quizzes George on the current cyber threats facing businesses and what processes and resources need to be considered when building a robust data breach plan. Additionally, George identifies some of the common mistakes businesses make in their response actions. Key talking points in this podcast revolve around reputation management, supporting consumers and the timeframe you have to act within.
    We’ve recorded this podcast to provide a blueprint for professionals who are responsible for their organisation's data breach plan. The episode offers an in-depth explanation of what resources, teams and services go into making a robust data breach response. For those working in the industry and familiar with the topic, it can either validate your approach or offer nuggets of new and useful information. And for those tasked with developing a plan from scratch, it can hopefully provide a template for you to follow as you begin to document your process.

  • One of the most pressing economic challenges stemming from the cost of living crisis is the growing concern around consumers' financial vulnerability. It is a high priority and concern for senior leaders across financial services, insurance, gaming, e-commerce and government. The publication of the Credit Information Market Study Interim Report and Discussion Paper (Nov 2022) — covering non-financial vulnerability and the need to ensure good customer outcomes — and the FCA’s new Consumer Duty regulations, emphasises the need for organisations to invest in data solutions and data science talent, adhere to evolving compliance requirements, be committed to customer care and have a strategic mindset.

It features vox pops from the public talking about their financial concerns and how they are coping with the pressures on their household budgets, expert insights from decision makers in the credit space and an overview of the ways businesses can strengthen relationships with customers and improve their financial confidence.

  • At a time of economic uncertainty how can we better help the financially under-served and drive greater financial inclusion?
    In this podcast we focus on how we can improve consumers’ experience of credit against the backdrop of the cost of living crises, and give them greater confidence in their finances. Joining host Kelli Fielding, VP Consumer Interactive at TransUnion, are Alastair Douglas, CEO of TotallyMoney, and Sarah Taylor, Analytical Consultant, TransUnion.
    TransUnion Consumer Pulse research shows 70% of consumers think having access to credit is important to achieve their financial goals, but a recent white paper on the financially under-served, published by TotallyMoney, revealed 1 in 3 UK adults struggle to access mainstream lenders. These research pieces provide the starting point for a discussion that explains what financial inclusion actually means, why it is important, and why it offers lenders an opportunity to materially help improve consumers’ access to lending products, as well as their understanding of their financial situation. Our speakers also discuss advancements in digital customer experience and using innovation to foster loyalty.

  • In this episode we turn our attention to the UK gambling industry.
    According to UK Gambling Commission research (https://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/statistics-and-research/publication/statistics-on-participation-and-problem-gambling-for-the-year-to-march-2022), 43% of UK adults aged 16 and over participated in gambling in year to March 2022 (within a four week period). This includes the National Lottery, sports betting and online slot machines. The UK gaming industry has invested heavily in the move from bricks and mortar to omnichannel, the digital customer experience and adapting to evolving regulation. In this podcast we focus on socially responsible gambling through the lens of updates to UK gambling regulation and the growing cost of living crises. We ask: How can the UK gambling industry better protect consumers in 2022 and in the future?
    Joining host Ben Wade (TransUnion) are Luke Sugden (Flutter UK and Ireland), Tom Banks (Kindred Group), Dan Whitlam (GamCare) and Roberta Sossi (TransUnion). The discussion starts with the latest guidance published by the UK Gambling Commission, with our guests identifying key talking points and explaining how the industry is interpreting and responding to them. The conversation moves on to insights into consumer economic behaviour and attitudes, the protections players expect from operators and how this is shaping the digital customer experience. We wrap up by looking to the future and how advanced data insights and regulation could further help consumers and the industry.

  • In the UK we're five years into the open banking journey that’s enabled consumers to share their current account information securely with third-party providers in exchange for tailored financial products and services. The macroeconomic challenges of the cost of living crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as rising property and rental prices, are putting financial services and credit products under the microscope. In parallel, the technology is continuing to evolve with the Open Banking Implementation Entity's (OBIE) publication of the Open Banking Standard version 3.1.10, the final release under the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) revised roadmap. This makes it an ideal time to dive into the world of open banking, to understand its development and potential to help consumers and businesses create better outcomes.
    In this episode regular host Asia Anwar-Jones, Head of FinTech at TransUnion, is joined by Praneeth Meka, Senior Director Data Science and Analytics, and Sam Buckley, Senior Credit Consultant in Open Banking, to explore open banking’s maturity curve, reflecting on consumer adoption, use cases and lessons learned, and ongoing innovation.
