  • SIFMA Statement on Cybersecurity Recommendations in 9/11 Commission Report

    Date 22/07/2014

    SIFMA today issued the following statement from Kenneth E. Bentsen, Jr., SIFMA president and CEO, after the 9/11 Commission Report identified cybersecurity as a key area of focus for U.S. security and recommended that Congress should enact cybersecurity legislation to enable private companies to collaborate with the government in countering cyber threats: 

    "Cybersecurity is a top priority for the financial services industry, which is dedicating significant resources to protect the integrity of the financial markets and the millions of Americans who use financial services every day. This report underscores the importance of cybersecurity legislation that would make it easier for the industry and government to work together to address this growing threat. A robust public-private partnership is the most effective way to prevent and defend against cyber attacks. We urge Congress to prioritize national security and take action now on the bipartisan information sharing legislation pending in the Senate."
