The Sarbanes-Oxley Act never mentions cybersecurity. However, the SEC has released “Commission Statement and Guidance on Public Company Cybersecurity Disclosures” which makes an issuer's cybersecurity program a compliance event.
Technology and data usage expose companies to a variety of potential risk events that could materially affect their financial statements.
SOX Cybersecurity compliance refers to a public company implementing strong internal control processes to mitigate identified and disclosed cybersecurity risks.
This event focuses on:
Understanding the SEC's guidance for cybersecurity assessments.
Maintaining a comprehensive set of policies and procedures related to cybersecurity risks and internal controls.
Creating and operating appropriate and effective cybersecurity internal controls.
Addressing the issuer's disclosure obligations under the federal securities laws.
Reminding corporate insiders of the applicable insider trading prohibitions under the general antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws. In addition, they are reminded of the obligation to refrain from selective disclosure of material nonpublic information about cybersecurity risks or incidents.
This timely, four-hour CPE seminar is designed for internal audit management, compliance managers, controllers, CFO's and others who have to create value within the cybersecurity internal control framework.
This internal control training course will provide each attendee with 4 CPE Event Hours (YB). A certificate of completion will be provided.
