Panel talks about cyber preparedness at ICI annual meeting; SEC’s IM Division also zeroing in on cybersecurity
The chief compliance officer should have an “active role” in discussing a firm’s cybersecurity threats not only with technology personnel but also with management, outside vendors and even fund boards, David Joire, senior counsel in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of Investment Management, said Thursday.
Speaking on a cybersecurity panel discussion at the Investment Company Institute’s annual conference in Washington, Joire said that the SEC’s Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations isn’t the only division providing guidance to firms on cybersecurity, pointing to the IM division’s recently released guidance to help advisors and funds address their cyber risks.
