As a leading international law firm in the media sector, working with companies around the world, CMS has witnessed first-hand the cybersecurity threats facing the industry and the damaging impact that cybersecurity incidents can have on organisations. We have worked with companies across sectors on all aspects of cybersecurity, from developing an organisational strategy for cybersecurity through to pre-incident planning and post-incident response. We have seen how some organisations, with board-level leadership, have taken major strides forward to enhance protection, including best-in-class technical and operational measures – and we have seen how others still have a long way to go.
Through this work and our discussions with organisations and regulators around the world, we have developed substantial experience of best practice approaches across jurisdictions. Our intention in publishing this paper is to make a further contribution to the conversation about cybersecurity within the media industry and to share the benefit of our experience with media organisations.
We hope that you find this paper useful and look forward to continuing to work closely with our media clients around the world to ensure that the industry can continue to innovate and grow in a way that manages the cybersecurity threat.
