Additional Information: Reasonable Security 2021
Symposium Description
Following last year’s successful symposium, this year’s annual symposium in support of Cybersecurity Awareness Month returns to the topic of reasonable security.
Ask ten cybersecurity professionals what “reasonable security” is and you’ll likely get ten different answers. That’s because – truth be told – what counts as “reasonable security” is a work in progress. Notwithstanding the lack of clarity as to what is – and what isn’t – reasonable, organizations may be legally responsible for having reasonable information security practices … and in Ohio, Connecticut, and Utah having “reasonable security practices” can serve as a “get out of jail free” card should you be sued as a result of a cyber incident.
The absence of a clear and unambiguous specification of reasonableness makes it imperative for business owners, Boards, executives, and their trusted advisors to know how to think through “reasonableness.”
