Reframing your approach from brand to community will be critical if marketers are to make the most of the opportunities emerging through the metaverse.

Yahoo director of brand and marketing, Anny Havercroft, has left her post to take up a business marketing leadership role at TikTok.

It was a rebrand challenge two-a-half years and one arguably large misstep in the making. Following the acquisitions of AOL in 2015 and Yahoo in July 2016, US-based telco giant, Verizon, set out on a mission to unify and rebrand its media, adtech and Internet properties as one global offering. The resulting ​umbrella entity, Oath,​ was officially unveiled in June 2017 at Cannes.

​Hot on the heels of the Facebook/Cambridge Analytica data breach comes the news the Marriott has suffered a breach affecting up to 500 million guests and NASA suffered an employee data breach in October. This is on top of PageUp, an Australian SaaS provider, announcing it had suffered a significant security breach in May. Over the years, Yahoo, Google, Equifax and many other companies have suffered the same fate.

An open and integrated platform approach, verified first-party audience data and content investment lie at the heart of Oath’s plans to shake up the adtech platform space, its global product technology chief claims.

Thursday's confirmed breach at Yahoo means that a treasure trove of stolen data is very likely circulating on the black market -- potentially putting millions of internet users at risk.
