Is Your Business Prepared for the New Era of Cybersecurity Regulation? Part II

Last September, New York regulators threw the gauntlet down to financial services companies, requiring them to step up their cybersecurity efforts by January 2017. Companies needed to establish comprehensive data breach plans, create multi-stepped authentication processes, appoint a chief information security officer and mitigate third party vendor risk – compliance with which needed to be certified by senior leadership. Now, the regulation will come into effect March 1, 2017, giving banks and insurers an extra two months to become compliant with these new cybersecurity regulations. While the deadline has been extended, the need to become compliant has not lessened.
