New SEC cybersecurity regulations are here–Expel can help maintain compliance
New rules and zero tolerance for getting it wrong is a recipe for stress. We can help.
What are the new SEC regulations?
New SEC regulations were published on December 18, 2023. Here’s what the SEC requires:
- Public (and aspiring public) companies will have to report material cybersecurity incidents to the SEC within four business days
- The SEC also wants details on your cybersecurity risk program, involvement of assessors or consultants, and policies for third-party service providers

Speed is mandatory with this new regulation, and four business days isn’t a lot of time.
Perform root-cause analysis, quickly.
It’s not just understanding root-cause analysis and enriching it with context. You also have to use that information to build resilience.
Generate reports anyone can read.
Odds are someone across your board, stakeholders, or investors aren’t technical or InfoSec experts. Translating incidents into plain speak is critical.
