Article of the MonthArticle of the Month for April 2021 is 'What companies are disclosing about cybersecurity risk & oversight in 2020' – EY
From the abstract
This excellent summary of 100 company disclosures is a must for any board
member or CEO wanting an overview of what others are doing to drive better risk governance for cyber security. Although there are some very encouraging signs that organisations are realising the existential threat and the impacts on individuals of privacy breaches and outages caused by cyber attacks, this paper reveals much needs to be done. Major gaps include expertise on boards, expertise at executive level, lack of independent advice, and worse yet, no test plans. This reviewer spent the last year assisting a client with responding and recovering from a major cyber incident, and can assure you, boards and executives must fully grasp the risk they are governing, or suffer the serious
impacts on individuals and the bottom line.
We hope you enjoy reading it and please do get in touch with any comments and suggestions.
