Management liability claims have been raised against companies that have experienced cybersecurity incidents. In a guest post on D&O Diary, Paul Ferrillo and Chris Veltsos, the authors argue that cyber risk is in fact D&O risk and that the risk is growing.

Chris is a professor in the Department of Computer Information Science at Minnesota State University, Mankato where he regularly teaches Information Security and Information Warfare classes.
