mnemonic security podcast
Hosted by Robby Peralta from mnemonic, one of Europe’s leading cybersecurity companies, the show features conversations with researchers, founders, operators, and security leaders working across the cybersecurity landscape.
Each episode explores a specific topic within cybersecurity: from incident response, threat intelligence, AI, and geopolitics, to leadership, resilience, and the changing role of security leaders.
The podcast is tailored to cybersecurity practitioners and decision-makers who want grounded conversations about where cybersecurity is going, what organisations should prepare for, and what experienced people are seeing.

Securing healthcare data while studying COVID-19

In this episode, we chat with the people in charge of the healthcare and sensitive data collected in what is amongst the world's largest COVID-19 studies to date.
The study known as the Corona Study, is lead by the Oslo University Hospital and aims to examine how the coronavirus spreads in Norway. At the time this episode was recorded the study had been available for 19 days and more than 122 000 people had already answered the questionnaire.
Dr. Gard Thomassen and Leon Charl du Toit work in an organisation called TSD at the University of Oslo. TSD (in Norwegian) is an abbreviation for "Service for sensitive data" and is a big data/ security platform that researchers use to carry out their studies.
We talk about how the sensitive data collected is handled in terms of security, and how they were able to set up the infrastructure for the study in less than 24 hours.
