Year One of the SEC’s 8-K Cyber Rule Filings

Location: Broadway Ballroom, 6th Floor. CE/CLE SESSION. This presentation will focus on cybersecurity incident reporting in the past year under the SEC’s new rule, which requires public companies to report certain “material” cybersecurity incidents using a Form 8-K.  We will discuss certain trends, SEC guidance, enforcement and market approaches related to addressing the rule during its first year of inception.  We will delve into the impact of the 8-K cyber rule on liability and risk for public companies and their D&Os, including CISOs.  We will also discuss certain approaches for mitigating D&O and cyber-related risks, including through insurance.  Finally, we will forecast the evolution of cybersecurity risk in 2025 as it relates to public companies and their D&Os.
