Regulatory Scrutiny of Technology and Data

September 2022

Digitally enabled, automated, interconnected, and real-time services and innovations fuel business but with what current and emerging regulatory risks?  Did you know that:

• Bank information technology concerns constitute 25 percent of all cited supervisory concerns, with most related to risk management and controls, according to the OCC.

• Insufficient data protection or information security can constitute an unfair practice, according to the CFPB.

• Multiple investigations of companies’ records preservation practices and employee use of unauthorized communication channels, including personal devices, have been initiated by the SEC and other regulators.

• A new approach to the data privacy and security framework is needed and, according to the FTC, particularly one that would involve substantive limits rather than procedural protections.
