Banking groups led by ABA want the SEC to revoke its cybersecurity incident disclosure requirement because of need for confidentiality about critical infrastructure

The letter was flagged in a report Monday (May 26) by Cointelegraph, which noted that the rule in question — the SEC’s Cybersecurity Risk Management rule, published in July 2023 — requires companies to quickly disclose incidents such as data breaches or hacks.
