Proposed Cybersecurity Disclosure and Reporting Requirements for U.S. Public Companies

In this episode of the Above Board podcast, Morrison & Foerster partner and host Dave Lynn speaks with partners Alex Iftimie and Haima Marlier, who formerly served in senior counsel roles at the U.S. DOJ and SEC, respectively, on new initiatives to require disclosure and reporting of cybersecurity incidents against the backdrop of a heightened threat environment for cybersecurity risks. The discussion addresses the SEC’s recently proposed amendments to require real-time incident reporting and detailed disclosures regarding cybersecurity risk management, strategy, governance, as well as new legislation which will impose new cybersecurity incident reporting requirements for critical infrastructure entities.
