The meeting will be held on December 10, 2009, in New York City.
The Financial Impact of Cyber Risk: 50 Questions Every CFO Should Ask is a joint initiative to identify and respond to the current needs of the C-suite community regarding cyber risk.

Phase II is focused on developing an implementation strategy that addresses the questions provided in Phase I. Additionally, this initiative will expand that framework to include guidance on making more informed decisions related to cyber risk from an economic standpoint.
A workshop to discuss the continued development of Phase II will take place on December 10, 2009, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at Phillips Nizer LLP in Manhattan. This is the fourth and final meeting to discuss the Phase II work effort; the first three were held during the summer and fall of 2009. As a result of progress made through the first three meetings, the initiative is in its final stages of completion. However, new participants are welcome to attend and contribute to the project's finalization.
Participation is open to all stakeholders who represent standards developing organizations, consortia and other forums, industry, government, and consumers. Attendance is free of charge, but due to space limitations advance registration by December 1, 2009, is required. Click here to register.
