Cybersecurity Risk Management, Strategy, and Governance [Line Items] |
Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block] | Risk Management and Strategy We regularly assess risks from cybersecurity threats, monitor our information systems for potential vulnerabilities and test those systems pursuant to our cybersecurity policies, processes, and practices, which are integrated into our overall risk management system. We strive to mitigate these risks through cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance efforts, which include the safeguarding of our systems and electronic information through a set of cybersecurity controls, processes, proactive monitoring, and disaster recovery plans that seek to minimize business disruptions. To protect our information systems from cybersecurity threats, we use various security tools that help us identify, escalate, investigate, resolve and recover from cybersecurity incidents in an appropriate manner. These efforts include our risk management process, which comprises frameworks such as the International Organization for Standardization (“ISO”) 27001:2022 and standards published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. We also perform periodic scans, network vulnerability assessments, penetration tests, adversary simulations and risk assessments. Additionally, we engage third-party service providers such as IBM, Microsoft, and HCL Technologies to assist us in managing risks associated with cybersecurity threats. Additionally, we have established processes for third party management which include risk assessment to identify, assess and mitigate risks related to our service providers. We have a security operations center that provides cybersecurity monitoring, correlation, and response to protect our digital assets, assisted with AI tools and cyberthreat intelligence services. We have an established cybersecurity incident response plan and disaster recovery plans with the objective of handling incidents across the organization that could cause major disruptions to our business. These plans are periodically tested with a view to improvement based on findings, environment changes, and external assessment. Our employees are encouraged to contribute to our cybersecurity efforts. We have implemented awareness and education programs across the company that include phishing simulation campaigns, global webinars, informative material about threats and best practices and a formal security training path. As of December 31, 2024, risks from cybersecurity threats have not materially affected the company. For more information about these risks, see “Item 3—Key Information—Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business and Operations—We are increasingly dependent on information technology and our systems and infrastructure, as well as those provided by third-party service providers, face certain risks, including cyber-security risks.”
