Parava Security Solutions

Governments, recognizing the peril to Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) have begun to swing away from market forces being a determinant for the management of cybersecurity. Adopting a regulatory approach to cybersecurity risk management. Introducing regulation that includes several proposals from the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC), affecting covered capital markets. The US Department of Defense (DoD) DFARS regime, effecting U.S defense contractors and subcontractors. The European Union (EU) Network and Infrastructure Security 2.0 (EU NIS 2.0) Directive, focused on CNI providers and the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) targets EU Financial Institutions and ICT providers. The Australian Government has plans to overhaul its cybersecurity rules and set up an agency to oversee cybersecurity.

Cyber regulation pushes cybersecurity risk management into the board rooms of covered entities. Creating significant legal and compliance risk, requiring boards to demonstrate a reasonable level of oversight, assurance and attestation of cybersecurity risks. While maintaining economic accountability to their shareholders. Underpinned in all cases by robust regulatory compliance regimes, that include both civil and criminal liability.
