Cyber Risk Benchmarking: Demonstrating Diligence and Managing Liability Exposure
October 27, 2026 | 2:00PM ET
In recognition of Cybersecurity Awareness Month this October, join us for a practical discussion on how cyber risk benchmarking can help organizations strengthen cyber governance, improve oversight, and support a defensible approach to managing cyber risk.
As regulatory scrutiny and stakeholder expectations continue to rise, boards and management teams face increasing pressure to demonstrate that cyber risks are being actively monitored and addressed. Benchmarking provides valuable context by helping organizations evaluate their cyber risk posture relative to peers, identify areas for improvement, and establish a reasonable standard of care.
During this session, we'll explore how cyber risk benchmarking can support more informed decision-making, ongoing risk monitoring, and stronger governance practices that help reduce organizational and director liability exposure before and after a cyber incident.
By attending, you'll gain:
- A practical framework for using cyber risk benchmarking to strengthen governance and oversight
- Insight into how directors and executives can demonstrate ongoing diligence in cyber risk management
- Approaches for identifying gaps, prioritizing improvements, and tracking progress over time
- Guidance on establishing a defensible standard of care through objective, peer-based comparisons
- Strategies to help reduce organizational and director liability exposure in the event of a cyber incident
