Charles Shirer – the custom t-shirt wearing CEO who went from Nintendo to Network Security

Charles Shirer - the custom t-shirt wearing CEO who went from Nintendo to Network Security

Charles Shirer is the Chief Executive Officer of GlobalWave Consulting, an IT and cybersecurity consultancy. Known as the @bsdbandit to his 20,000+ Twitter followers, Charles is often considered the most positive person in cybersecurity (and for good reason!). In this episode, Charles joins the No Password Required team to tell us about how his childhood love for video games led to his passion for everything computer-related, what inspires him to share motivational messages on Twitter, and the importance of striving for a positive mindset in life. Jack and Ernie discuss the United Kingdom’s potential privacy enforcement against TikTok, and the regulatory regime for collecting the personal data of minors.
