Yesterday, the SEC gave notice of an open meeting next Wednesday, March 9th. There’s one item on the agenda:

The Commission will consider whether to propose amendments regarding cybersecurity risk management, strategy, governance, and incident disclosure.

This meeting isn’t too much of a surprise. It comes on the heels of last month’s cybersecurity proposal for registered investment advisers and investment companies – and at a time when cyber threat levels have reached new heights. Lawmakers have been urging SEC Chair Gary Gensler to follow through on his plan to propose rules. John blogged a couple months ago about what the new disclosure rules might include.
