Cybersecurity breaches not only disrupt business operations, damage reputations and carry heavy costs, they also increasingly trigger SEC investigations. The security of your employees, customers and corporate data is critical to maintaining trust. As cyber threats intensify, it’s important to understand that cybersecurity is not the sole responsibility of the IT department. It requires a coordinated approach that includes proper safeguards, training and employee participation.

Andresino, partner at Arent Fox LLP, and Thomas S.
