Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]
PPG’s cybersecurity program is designed to protect and preserve the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our networks and systems as well as information that we own or is in our care through a risk-based approach. The Company’s program is based on the U.S. National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) cybersecurity framework and other applicable industry frameworks.
Our cybersecurity program includes:
ongoing employee cybersecurity awareness and training activities, which include frequent phishing testing;
access management and access controls intended to implement Principle of Least Privilege (PoLP) access;
protection of certain data through encryption at rest and in transit;
monitoring and protection software;
a vulnerability management program that includes managing the risk of third-party software;
a cyber incident response plan that provides controls and procedures to support appropriate containment, response, investigation, reporting and recovery of cybersecurity incidents;
periodic testing of our cybersecurity posture, including by independent third-party consultants; and
integrating cybersecurity requirements and other provisions into various contracts.
PPG has continued to invest in cybersecurity to evolve and improve its program. PPG regularly assesses and measures itself against industry practices to identify opportunities to improve its people, processes and technology used to identify, prevent, detect, respond and recover from cybersecurity incidents. When such improvements are identified and validated as appropriate in PPG’s business context, they are incorporated in the roadmap for implementation.
