8. Name the top challenges with establishing OGC’s role in managing cyber risk? – Cyber security still largely viewed as “an IT problem” that should be managed by CIO/CISO – Legal slows down decision-making in an area that requires agility and rapid response – Lawyers lack the technical background to understand risk and mitigation options – Lawyers consulted only on compliance and regulatory issues rather than as advisor on business risk 8

What are the biggest problems with having CISO report to CIO? – Conflict of interest between primary role of CIO (availability and integrity) and CISO (security) – Lack of focus on security in favor of responsibilities viewed as more "important" to the business – Lack of segregated and protected security budget may lead to shift of resources over course of year 14

15. What should be the board’s role in overseeing cyber risk management? – Must have an accurate and up to date view on the company’s cyber risk profile – Should understand how cybersecurity budget is allocated – Should understand the company’s incident response protocol and determine the point at which the board should be informed of an incident – Board should regularly assess the effectiveness of the company’s cyber risk governance structure 15

20. Conclusion Take your CIO/CISO to lunch and talk about the “defensibility” of your company’s cyber risk posture. Review your company’s incident response plan and make sure you are comfortable with counsel’s formal role in the process. Make sure you have ready-access to outside counsel and/or other experts who can help in the event of a cyber incident Check your insurance coverage Ask your executives and board if they are comfortable with the degree of visibility they have into cyber risk issues 20
