That worldview may be increasingly out of date.<\/p>\n<p>New revisions to the Securities and Exchange Commission\u2019s Regulation S-P, which come into effect for small firms June 3 and are already in effect for large ones, reveal that regulators increasingly view cybersecurity risks and data breaches as an inevitability, not an anomaly.<\/p>\n<p>At first glance, the amendments appear procedural. They include enhanced incident-response programs, tighter recordkeeping requirements, and mandatory customer notifications following unauthorized access to sensitive information.<\/p>\n<p>But a closer look reveals that the SEC is signaling cybersecurity governance can no longer stop at a firm\u2019s own firewall.
