Description

Cyber Risk Management: U.S. Government and Private Sector Efforts

The U.S. Government has made cyber risk management a key part of its cybersecurity efforts. The NIST Voluntary Cybersecurity Framework, a centerpiece of the Obama Administration’s Executive Order on cybersecurity, was released in February 2014 as a tool to help companies manage their cyber risk more effectively. How has the Framework been received by industry and has it helped companies manage cyber risk in today’s threat environment? What is the status of the Administration’s other cyber initiatives? How are Corporate Boards responding to the need to manage cyber risk? What is their responsibility to do so?

Roger Cressey, Partner with Liberty Group Ventures LLC (LGV) and internationally known cybersecurity and counterterrorism expert, and Kiersten Todt, President and Managing Partner of LGV, will explore these and other important and timely issues surrounding cyber risk management in an interconnected workplace.
