In an era where cybersecurity threats loom larger than ever, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has introduced stringent cybersecurity rules to enhance transparency and risk management among public companies. This whitepaper dives deep into the heart of these regulations, spotlighting the four-business-day notification requirement and the complex challenge of defining materiality.
Discover how Cyber Risk Quantification (CRQ) emerges as an anchor in effectively addressing the SEC’s mandates. Through a full exploration of CRQ’s fundamentals, our experts illuminate its role as a rigorous methodology that transforms vague, qualitative assessments into precise financial metrics. Learn about the diverse approaches to CRQ, including FAIR, Hybrid FAIR, and others, each aimed at quantifying cyber risk to inform critical decision-making processes.
Key highlights include:
- Operationalizing Materiality: Insights on tailoring a company-specific definition of materiality, underpinned by CRQ, to gauge the financial impact of cyber events.
- Facilitating Open Conversations: How CRQ dismantles barriers between CISOs, executives, and directors, enabling discussions about cyber risks in universally understood financial terms.
- Defending Cybersecurity Investments: Strategic advice on leveraging CRQ for justifying cybersecurity spending, showcasing how quantification can shield and validate CISO decisions.
- ThreatConnect Risk Quantifier: An introduction to a cutting-edge solution that democratizes CRQ, making it accessible for organizations to rapidly establish a robust CRQ capability.
This whitepaper aims to steer organizations through the complexities of compliance with the SEC’s cybersecurity regulations. It underscores the vital importance of adopting CRQ today to foster improved communications, align with executive and director expectations, optimize cybersecurity investments, and ultimately, meet SEC regulations in a defensible manner.
