A Q&A with Jacob Olcott
As Jacob Olcott, principal in cybersecurity at Good Harbor Security Risk Management, LLC points out, the SEC Guidance released in 2011 brings the issue of data security out of the IT realm and into corporate governance. But these rules for publicly traded companies are still relatively new and what they mean in terms of legal exposure is still largely untested. Olcott answered a few of my questions about the guidance and how companies can minimize their risks.
