201-896-4100 info@sh-law.comImproving cybersecurity remains a top priority for the financial services industry, which has been one of the hardest hit by data breaches in recent years. However, in order to develop effective state and federal regulations, the public and private sectors will need to work together. With this in mind, SIMFA Releases Cybersecurity Principles, which are recommendations for improving cybersecurity regulation. According to the Wall Street trade organization, the recommended principles by the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association are intended to assist regulators as they move forward with plans to review, update and harmonize their cybersecurity policies, regulations, and guidance.
SIFMA’s ten principles are as follows:
“Cybersecurity is a top priority for the financial services industry, which is dedicating significant resources to protect the integrity of the markets and the millions of Americans who use financial services every day. Effective and consistent regulatory guidance is a critical component of the broader cyber defense effort, as it promotes best practices and accountability across the financial sector,” said Kenneth E. Bentsen, Jr., SIFMA president & CEO.
SIMFA’s principles reflect many of the challenges that both regulators and financial services firms will face as they tackle cybersecurity. Most notably, there cannot be a “one size fits all approach” given the variances in corporation size, resources, and risk. Yet, at the same time, the legal requirements placed on companies should be streamlined, predictable, and harmonious so as to reduce the regulatory burden.
