18 Cybersecurity Risk Update Cybersecurity was noted as one of the top ten risk for Boards in 2013 and is emphasized again in A recent study by the Ponemon Institute found that the number of successful cyber-attacks on companies jumped 42 % the past year and according to the Department of Homeland Security, the number of cyber threats by mid-2013 had already exceeded the total number of incidents in Regulations related to the security, confidentiality and privacy of information continue to evolve. Public companies are now subject to new SEC disclosure requirements regarding cybersecurity and in 2013 President Obama signed an executive order directing the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to develop a voluntary cybersecurity framework that was release earlier this year.
