Navigating New Regulations and Strengthening Organizational Defenses
Many of the recent updates to cybersecurity regulations have opted to require senior boards to become more involved in the cybersecurity of their organizations. The recent 2023 SEC Cyber rules are just one example of the increased responsibility expected from senior boards. To be clear, board members are not expected to be technical experts but rather have a general understanding of cybersecurity and the cyber risks that their company can face. They must be able to manage these threats through open lines of communication and oversee the development of incident response plans. Data breaches and cyber-attacks have become an inevitable consequence of a growing digital age meaning that now, more than ever, security must become a priority. Cybersecurity is a top-down process and attorneys advising boards and senior executives will find this webinar a helpful guide for navigating this evolving and growing challenge. Â
In this seminar, our expert panelists begin by defining the senior board’s role in a company’s cybersecurity including how to execute this role. The speakers then outline the 2023 SEC Rules on Cybersecurity Risk Management, Strategy, Governance, and Incident Disclosure by Public Companies and highlight how these requirements have altered and increased the board’s responsibilities in managing cybersecurity. The panelists then discuss the important factors in a strong and thorough cyber response plan. They conclude by reviewing some of the critical questions to cover throughout the process of building an incident response plan to ensure a comprehensive reach of all parts of the plan.Â
