Cybersecurity Risk Management, Strategy, and Governance [Line Items] |
Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block] | Risk Management and Strategy The Company maintains a robust enterprise-wide information security program aimed at assessing, identifying, and effectively managing cybersecurity risks, threats, and incidents. The Company has integrated cybersecurity risk management into its broader risk management framework to promote cybersecurity risk management company-wide. Third-Party Engagement The Company engages a range of third-party advisory service providers, including cybersecurity assessors, and consultants to conduct recurrent evaluations of its cybersecurity controls. These reviews are a critical component of the ongoing risk assessment process within the cybersecurity function and include periodic evaluations of internal controls aimed at mitigating cybersecurity threats. These assessments often include penetration tests, evaluations of the Company's cyber program maturity, and assessments of progress toward future-state cyber initiatives, among other considerations. The results of these assessments are reviewed with management and the Board. Oversee Third-Party Risk The Company implements processes to oversee and manage the risks inherent with third-party service providers, including conducting thorough security assessments prior to engagement. This is designed to mitigate risks related to data breaches or other security incidents originating from third party providers. Incident Response The Company has implemented internal incident response procedures to address potential cyber incidents. These procedures are designed to analyze, contain, and remediate any cyber incidents that may circumvent existing safeguards. The incident response procedures encompass a systematic approach to evaluate the materiality of incidents, execute appropriate containment and remediation measures, and evaluate internal (including the Board) and external communication and disclosure protocols. The Company also maintains data backup procedures in the event of a cybersecurity incident and for a business continuity plan in the event of business interruption. Examples of our backup procedures include regularly scheduled backups for various systems, critical system log files, and applications backup.
