Why should your Board care about transforming human behavior from a cyber risk into a strategic defense? Ignoring this could mean the difference between your organization's success and its next breach. What don't you know and what should you do about it?

 

Join us on #CyberBoardCast™ Episode 231 as we kick off a new mini-series on the 'Human Factor in Cybersecurity.' Today, we explore the critical role of human behavior in cyber risks and how your Board and C-Suite can leverage behavioral analytics and advanced training to mitigate these threats.

What must your Board know about how the SEC’s amendments regarding customer breach notification rules compare with international standards like GDPR?

 

Join Cyber Nation Central® Chairman and CEO Andrzej Cetnarski on #CyberBoardCast™ Episode 230 as we compare the SEC’s enhanced Regulation S-P amendments with international standards and discuss what this means for companies operating internationally.

 

🔍 Key Takeaways:

 

1.       GDPR vs. SEC Notification Compliance: GDPR mandates notifying affected individuals within 72 hours of breach awareness, while the SEC requires notification within 30 days.

2.       Data Protection Principles: Both emphasize data protection and incident response, with GDPR covering a broader scope of personal data.

3.       Enforcement Mechanisms: GDPR fines up to 4% of annual global turnover; SEC focuses on financial penalties and regulatory scrutiny.



💡 Best Practices for International Compliance:

 

1.       Harmonize Policies: Align cybersecurity policies with both SEC and GDPR requirements.

2.       Regular Audits: Conduct audits to ensure compliance across jurisdictions.

3.       Cross-Border Collaboration: Foster collaboration between legal and compliance teams globally.

 

This concludes our series on the SEC’s enhanced Regulation S-P amendments and their implications for Boards and C-Suites. Tomorrow, we go way past these highly-insufficient regulations towards true breach deterrence!

Where do the SEC’s amendments requiring you to notify breached customers within 30 days fall short, and how can your Board and C-Suite address these gaps?

 

Join Cyber Nation Central® Chairman and CEO Andrzej Cetnarski on #CyberBoardCast™ Episode 227 as we delve into the critical shortcomings of the SEC’s new amendments and provide actionable strategies for Boards and C-Suites.

 

Ep227: Uncovering the Flaws in the SEC’s Cybersecurity Amendments – Essential Insights for Directors and Executives

 

🌐 Key Shortcomings:

 

1.    Lack of Continuous Training Requirements: No mandate for continuous cybersecurity training for Boards or C-Suites. While proactive education and engagement are crucial for effective governance, they’re life-or-death in real breach prevention. You’re only as strong as your weakest Director or Executive so ask yourself: who’s YOUR weakest one?

2.    Ambiguity in Breach Definitions: Lack of clear definitions of what constitutes a breach, complicating the start of the 30-day notification clock.

3.    Insufficient Guidance on Incident Response Standards: No specific guidelines on expected standards for incident response programs, leading to inconsistencies.

 

Best Practices to Address These Gaps:

 

1.    Continuous Training: Implement regular cybersecurity training and certification programs for Board members and executives.

2.    Clear Breach Definitions: Develop internal definitions of what constitutes a breach and establish swift detection and assessment protocols.

3.    Standardized Incident Response Plans: Establish response plans that meet and ideally exceed industry best practices.
