Compliance into the Weeds: Failure to Have Effective Compliance Program

The award winning, Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast which takes a deep dive into a compliance related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. Looking for some hard-hitting insights on sanctions compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this episode, Tom and Matt consider the recent DOJ enforcement action involving Verizon Business Network Services for failure to have an effective cyber security compliance program.

The recent case of Verizon’s non-compliance with cybersecurity standards and subsequent remediation efforts has sparked a significant conversation in the realm of cyber compliance. Tom views this case as a roadmap for companies to enhance their cybersecurity programs, emphasizing the importance of gap analysis and pressure testing. He draws parallels between cybersecurity compliance and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) compliance, suggesting that Verizon’s case could serve as an example for other companies.

Matt applauds Verizon’s voluntary self-disclosure and extensive remediation efforts. He underscores the importance of disclosure, cooperation, and remediation in both cybersecurity and corruption cases, viewing Verizon’s actions as a positive example for other companies. Join Tom Fox and Matt Kelly as they delve deeper into this topic in the latest episode of the Compliance into the Weeds podcast.
