5 Agency Guidance on Cybersecurity 2011 SEC Guidance Regulated companies should disclose information about cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents in SEC filings consistent with general disclosure requirements Recent breaches have led to speculation of mandatory requirements in the future June 2014 SEC Chair Aguilar on Cyber Risks and the Boardroom Adopt the NIST framework for managing cyber security risk Assign oversight of cyber risk to a specific board committee, preferably a separate risk committee Assign in-house corporate expertise to manage cybersecurity risks on daily basis and report to the board regularly Preparedness: response plans that include how to determine extent of damage and how to disclose internally/externally 2014 DOJ/FTC Policy Statement Antitrust should not be a barrier to legitimate cybersecurity information sharing if proper safeguards in place Information appropriate for sharing: cybersecurity threats, incident reports, indicators, threat signatures, alerts Cannot share competitive information such as pricing, output or business plans 9 Cyber security policy landscape 5 key issues 1. Information sharing 2. Clarification of Federal authority 3. Critical infrastructure 4. Liability protections 5. Federal IT systems 10 5

6 Cyber legislation in the 113 th Congress By the numbers Senate Introduced and referred to committee Reported by committee Passed by Chamber Signed into law House Lots of activity, but little movement beyond non-controversial measures Progress hamstrung by competing approaches House leadership piecemeal legislation Senate leadership comprehensive legislation White House focused on NIST Framework and Agency actions 11 Post-election outlook Lame Duck session Remote chance of seeing cyber provisions in Continuing Resolution Pre-conference discussions suggest support for the following measures: FISMA Reform Info-sharing (CISPA/CISA) Cyber R&D SAFETY Act amendment (NCCIP) 114 th Congress Senate Dems likely to follow White House retreat from focus on comprehensive legislation Republican victory in mid-terms could break cyber logjam in Congress White House Continued focus on NIST Cyber Framework further adoption, Version 2.0 Most activity likely to occur at Agency level sector-specific measures 12 6

Identify what you are trying to protect Are your policies in place and up to date? Are you testing your policies and procedures through drills? For Products: are you doing product testing and vulnerability assessments? Apply the NIST Framework how do you stand up in IDENTIFY, PROTECT, DETECT, RESPOND, RECOVER for your cyber risk areas? Are you ready for potential mandatory cyber risk and incident reporting? Is cybersecurity risk being managed by your board?
