Everbridge Chief Legal and Compliance Officer joins legal experts in discussing Board oversight for resilience and the importance of adequate information and reporting systems related to sources of corporate risk. Read: Managing Caremark Risks: Adapting Oversight to Evolving Case Law and Regulations https://lnkd.in/eA6DWrua …in ACC Docket, August 1, 2024 The article highlights: ☑ Mission critical -- Directors may be found liable when they fail to establish reporting systems or ignore those systems for “mission critical” aspects of the business.  ☑ Evolving regulations -- The quick-moving regulatory changes in business areas such as cybersecurity and sustainability may create a more expansive basis for Caremark claims.  ☑ Officer liability -- Though officers generally have more delimited areas of responsibility than boards, the extension of Caremark beyond directors may increase the universe of viable claims.  ☑ Adapt to changing risks -- Central compliance and mission critical risks are not static, and directors and officers need to continually evaluate sources of risks.

Supporting Enterprises During an IT Outage or Disruption Read the latest Everbridge blog: https://lnkd.in/dN7xkUWh Across today’s digital landscape, enterprises rely heavily on their IT infrastructure for operational and business continuity. However, IT outages are inevitable and can disrupt business operations, leading to significant financial losses and reputational damage. One of the most critical aspects of managing IT outages is the speed of response, leveraging: Real-time risk monitoring: continuous monitoring to identify potential issues before they escalate into major IT outages. Automated incident response: automated workflows and notifications to ensure the right personnel are alerted immediately, reducing time to resolution. Context-rich notifications: alerts enriched with relevant context to ensure responders have all the information they need to act quickly. Automated escalations: assurance that critical issues are addressed by escalating alerts to the next level of response if initial contacts are unavailable. 360-degree postmortems: detailed post-incident analysis to help identify gaps and improve response strategies. Continuous improvement: real-time tracking and performance metrics to aid in refining processes and preventing future outages.
