    Dec 12 2025
    In this special 2025 Wrapped edition of the Data Protection Made Easy podcast, Caine Glancy and Catarina Santos count down the top five most listened episodes of the year and unpack what they tell us about the real challenges facing DPOs and privacy teams. From the ethics of employee monitoring in an AI and hybrid working world, to what it really takes to stand out as a DPO, through to the Data Protection and Digital Information Act, adequacy worries, a surge in SARs and the thorny world of employee and ex employee requests, the hosts revisit their early predictions, share what changed through 2025, and look ahead to a busy 2026 that will include STAIRS, new complaints procedures, and more pressure on organisations to prove they can balance risk, rights and business needs.

I really enjoy listening to this on my commute to work. I've just joined the realms of data protection and wanted to learn whilst running and waiting for a certificated course. This gives me a good foundation to start with.

All very useful to a newbie in data protection
