Hello James,

I am fairly new to cybersecurity having worked at a firm for a year and a half before ai was laid off. However, I always thought or what I seen was that hashing was a "secure" way to transfer or send data. Now that the FTC states otherwise I would like to know your thoughts on this. When you have time let's discuss. Because I do not see how it isn't a good way to send or receive data. Excuse my ignorance again I am new and still learning. Happy Wednesday - Naomi :)

Hey Naomi,

Thanks for tuning and this is a great question. The FTC blog here is more of a warning shot that saying we hash PII is not acceptable or secure. That it become easy to figure out the hash which is true and is misleading consumers on the idea that we hash your data to secure it. This is going to be a push to data security standards. I hope this helps but I can see why you find it confusing
