Summary

Cars are collecting business data, and most security programs are pretending they are still just transportation. Wil Klu hosts Merry Marwig, VP of Global Communications and Advocacy at Privacy4Cars, to unpack why corporate cars, rentals, fleet vehicles, and personal vehicles used for work need to be treated like endpoints. They talk through the data stored in modern vehicles, why infotainment systems create real privacy and security risk, and how CISOs can build vehicle data deletion into policies, vendor contracts, and lifecycle processes. In this episode: • Why cars are overlooked endpoints in cybersecurity programs • What sensitive data can remain inside infotainment systems • How fleet vehicles can expose corporate and employee data • Why NIST 800-88 and certificates of deletion matter • What CISOs should require from automotive vendors • How vehicle privacy affects companies and consumers Follow The Keyboard Samurai for more plain-English conversations on cyber risk, leadership, and the business side of technology.
