Similarities Between SOX And SEC's Cyber Rule - Padraic O'Reilly - BSW #373


Listen Later

The Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act was a watershed moment in corporate governance, fundamentally altering how companies approached financial reporting and internal operational controls. By holding executives personally accountable for the accuracy of financial reports, SOX restored investor confidence in the wake of corporate malfeasance. The SEC's new cybersecurity rule represents a similar pursuit to restore investor confidence — this time for the digital age, centered on integrating cybersecurity into overall risk management.

Padraic O'Reilly, Founder and Chief Innovation Officer at CyberSaint, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the similarities between SOX and SEC's Cyber Rule. The SEC's cybersecurity rule introduced several vital requirements that build on the principles established by SOX, including:

  • Companies must report material cybersecurity incidents on Form 8-K, ensuring timely and transparent disclosure to investors.
  • Companies must provide regular updates on their cybersecurity risk management policies, the role of management in implementing these policies and the board's oversight of cybersecurity risks.
  • The rule encourages companies to disclose the cybersecurity expertise of their board members, highlighting the importance of informed oversight in managing cyber risks.
  • The rule requires cybersecurity disclosures to be presented in Inline Extensible Business Reporting Language, or Inline XBRL, ensuring consistency and comparability across filings.
