ACC Chicago | Navigating the Cybersecurity Landscape: SEC Regulation and Enforcement

With the US Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) adoption of new cybersecurity rules for public companies and the likelihood of continued interest in cybersecurity across administrations, today’s in-house counsel must be prepared to manage not only the fallout from a cybersecurity breach, but also the risks associated with related disclosure obligations.

Join McDermott and the Association of Corporate Counsel Chicago Chapter for lunch and a one-hour CLE presentation that will cover recent enforcement actions and practical steps to mitigate risk.

Attendees can expect to hear about:

• Anticipated effect of the election on SEC cybersecurity enforcement efforts
• Recent SEC cybersecurity enforcement actions
• Guidance from the SEC on the cybersecurity rules that went into effect in December 2023
• Practical strategies in-house counsel can employ to manage risk
