When a company built on sensitive data collapses, what happens to the information it collected? In this episode of Cyberside Chats, we examine 23andMe’s data breach, its March 2025 bankruptcy, and the uncomfortable parallels with the 2009 Flyclear shutdown. What happens to biometric or genetic data when a vendor goes under? What protections failed—and what should corporate security leaders do differently?
Drawing from past and present breaches, we offer a roadmap for corporate resilience. Learn practical steps for protecting your data when your vendors can’t protect themselves.
