The buck stops with the board and the C-suite for management of
all major risks—and cyber threats have emerged as some of the
most significant such risks. Yet there are few established rules
and practices for boards and senior managers to rely on. What are
the risks you may face? How can your company manage its digital
presence effectively? What roles and responsibilities should your
board and senior executives hold?
To help you answer such critical questions, Dentons'
Bill Ide and
Amanda Leech have prepared A Cybersecurity Guide for Directors.
Within, you'll learn how all aspects of a board's oversight
duties—strategy, talent, risk, governance, compliance and
culture—play into management of cyber risk under the business
judgment rule. We hope this guide, presented in clear,
plain-English terms, will give you a greater understanding of
cybersecurity risks—as well as how you can keep your company
and its stakeholders safe.
