Wall Street’s top regulator on Thursday said it had updated rules to ensure investment companies and others work to detect and respond to hackers’ theft of customer data.

The changes, approved unanimously by the five-member U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, apply to rules first adopted in 2000.

“Over the last 24 years, the nature, scale, and impact of data breaches has transformed substantially,” SEC Chair Gary Gensler said in a statement, adding that this required regulations to keep pace.

Under the changes announced Thursday, broker-dealers, investment companies, registered investment advisers and others will be required to maintain incident response programs to detect, respond to and recover from cyber-theft of customers’ personal data as well as notify individuals whose information may have been accessed without authorization, according to the SEC.

Companies affected by the rules will have to come into compliance 18 months to two years from the date the changes appear in the Federal Register, according to the agency.

What is Firewall? A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.

 

Secure your network at the gateway against threats such as intrusions, Viruses, Spyware, Worms, Trojans, Adware, Keyloggers, Malicious Mobile Code (MMC), and other dangerous applications for total protection in a convenient, affordable subscription-based service. Modern threats like web-based malware attacks, targeted attacks, application-layer attacks, and more have had a significantly negative effect on the threat landscape. In fact, more than 80% of all new malware and intrusion attempts are exploiting weaknesses in applications, as opposed to weaknesses in networking components and services. Stateful firewalls with simple packet filtering capabilities were efficient blocking unwanted applications as most applications met the port-protocol expectations. Administrators could promptly prevent an unsafe application from being accessed by users by blocking the associated ports and protocols.
