To Whom It May Concern: I am a reporter for FTF News in Manhattan, working on a story about the SEC's revamp of cybersecurity rules in the financial-services sector. The revamp would apply to the various "market entities," including broker-dealers and various security-based swap dealers and repositories. I'm requesting comment. More specifically, my question is this: What's taking so long? Shouldn't risk-mitigation policies be in place, especially the plan for all market entities to give "immediate written electronic notice of a significant cybersecurity incident"? I'll be filing at the close of the business day, on Monday, March 20, 2023. I look forward to your reply to this email address. Thanks in advance, Louis Chunovic Senior Reporter FTF News Financial Technologies Forum LLC
