Among Fortune 1000, Many Public Companies Remain Silent on Cyber Risk
Fortune 1,000 firms in the health care, technology and insurance sectors top the list of industry groups most concerned about cyber threats, according to a recent report by Willis North America, a unit of Willis Group Holdings.
The Willis Fortune 1000 Cyber Disclosure Report, 2013, published today, is the second in a series of reports examining U.S. public companies filings in response to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission guidance issued in 2011, asking U.S. listed firms to provide extensive disclosures on their cyber exposures. For this report, Willis expanded the scope of the review to a wider pool of companies, focussing on the Fortune 1,000 while examining the responses of various industry groups.
