Cybersecurity Risk Management, Strategy, and Governance [Line Items] |
Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block] | Denny’s recognizes that cybersecurity is a critical aspect of our business operations and that the protection of sensitive data and information systems is of paramount importance. We have implemented cybersecurity measures and processes to address and mitigate material risks from cybersecurity threats. On an annual basis, we perform a cybersecurity risk assessment to identify and evaluate risks and potential vulnerabilities that could impact our business. Cybersecurity is also assessed as part of our compliance program. In addition, we have preventative and detective monitoring controls that include robust access controls, privileged access management, vulnerability scanning, penetration testing of our online systems and internal networks, annual employee-wide awareness education, data encryption and incident response plans. These controls help to ensure our cybersecurity program reduces the cyber risk for our environment. We utilize third-party providers and acknowledge that these providers and partners may pose cybersecurity risks. We have implemented due diligence and oversight processes to ensure our third-party providers adhere to our cybersecurity standards when handling our data and accessing our systems. This includes a risk assessment before acceptance as a provider and continued monitoring through our third-party risk management program. Denny’s faces various risks associated with cybersecurity threats that could materially affect our business. In the event of a material cybersecurity incident, we are committed to promptly informing our shareholders, customers, and regulatory authorities, as required by applicable law and regulations. We have not identified any risks from cybersecurity threats (including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents) that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition.
