WCD's Chile Chapter recently gathered to explore the challenges of cybersecurity in the boardroom. During this immersive session, participants engaged in a simulated cyberattack exercise. Attendees gained a comprehensive understanding of the vital skills required to respond to and mitigate cybersecurity threats. Read more about the timely event below.
Independent Director/Directora de Empresas: Banco de Chile, UAI | Executive Mentor/Mentora Ejecutiva | Driving Change & Innovation/Impulsando el Cambio y la Innovación
Parte de nuestra tarea como miembros de directorios es informarnos, entrenarnos continuamente y difundir prácticas responsables para los desafíos del presente y del futuro. Hablar sobre ciberseguridad también es hablar sobre nuestra propia seguridad. En un mundo donde, según un estudio de la plataforma Prey, se espera que los ataques cibernéticos se dupliquen para 2025, es nuestro deber estar informados como individuos y líderes de nuestras organizaciones. La pregunta ya no es “¿y si me pasa?” sino “¿cuándo me va a pasar?”. Por eso, es importante estar preparados para defendernos y, sobre todo, para reaccionar, y la mejor manera de evitar esta amenaza es hablando de ella. Gracias a un ciberataque simulado, junto a directoras de Women Corporate Directors Chile, logramos entender cómo responder ante una situación así, y qué transmitirle a todos aquellos que quieran entrenarse en esta tarea. Fue una actividad sumamente enriquecedora en la que nos informamos, ampliamos nuestros conocimientos e intercambiamos experiencias. ¡Muchas gracias, María Francisca Yáñez, Ph.D, por recibirnos en las oficinas de Microsoft!

The article explores the complexities of the SEC's new pay-versus-performance rule and its role for the comp committee and shareholders.
