WASHINGTON — The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules Wednesday to require public companies to disclose within four days all cybersecurity breaches that could affect their bottom lines. Delays will be permitted if immediate disclosure poses serious national security or public safety risks. passed by a 3-2 vote along party lines, also require publicly traded companies to annually disclose information on their cybersecurity risk management and executive expertise in the field.

Technically, the clock doesn’t start ticking on the four-day window for reporting until companies have determined a breach is material. the new requirements overstep the SEC’s authority and “seem designed to better meet the needs of would-be hackers” - who could benefit from detailed info on how companies manage cyberrisk.
The rules were first proposed in March 2022, when the SEC determined that breaches of corporate networks posed an escalating risk as their digitization of operations and remote work increased — and the cost to investors from cybersecurity incidents rose.
