Make Changes to be Ready for the New SEC Cybersecurity Disclosure Rule
Mandiant/Google Cloud's Jill C. Tyson and Dark Reading's Terry Sweeney on how companies can better plan and prepare for the Securities and Exchange Commission's new cybersecurity disclosure rule.

Tyson offers up timelines, checklists, and other guidance around enterprisewide readiness to ensure compliance with the new rule. She also discusses changes to howincident response is handled, as well as how incidents are communicated internally and externally.
