Peter Dyson, the head of analytics at Kovrr, the leading global provider of cyber risk quantification (CRQ) solutions joins Enterprise Radio.
This episode of Enterprise Radio is on association with the Cyber Security Channel.
Listen to host Eric Dye & guest Peter Dyson discuss the following:
- In Q3, the SEC issued new cybersecurity rules mandating greater transparency and risk communication. We normally think of cyber incidents as a security matter. But could you give us a high level analysis on how this ruling makes cybersecurity a top boardroom and critical business issue? (Suggested to reference: https://www.kovrr.com/blog-post/new-sec-cyber-requirements-unite-security-leaders-and-business-stakeholders.)
- With the new mandate from the SEC, how is cybersecurity, and planning for risk, now very much a financial-impact type of conversation versus being previously siloed in the realm of security?
- Your team recently published the “ Fortune 1000 Cyber Risk Report: Determining SEC Materiality With Marketplace Benchmarks” (https://www.kovrr.com/reports/fortune-1000-cyber-risk-report), and provides companies with objective benchmarks of incident materiality. In more every day layperson’s terms, could you describe what leaders within Fortune 1000 companies, and even mid-sized enterprises need to know about “incident materiality” as it affects their business?
- What were some of the most astounding findings in the report, in your experience of working with Fortune 1000 companies?
- What are some of the top industries affected and how, based on your research?
- Could you describe how companies would use cyber risk quantification (known as CRQ), which is a solution your company Kovrr provides, as they plan for risk?
- What are the ways in which the findings of a CRQ assessment would be used by specific business and security leaders alike within a company?
- In your view, does the recent SEC findings escalate cyber security risk to a new level as one where now the CFO and CEO are involved or at least more aware on the financial impact of an incident? And why is this better for businesses navigating in an increasingly dangerous world for cyber security crime?
- What is one tip you have for businesses planning for 2024 based on your work and recent research?
