Global Regulatory Outlook (GRO) 2017 survey consistently stated
that they are focused on cybersecurity. Cyber breaches have become

for cyber attacks, given their massive store of sensitive data
accessible on electronic information systems. Cyber security has
thus emerged as a high priority for financial regulators," as
Sharon Cohen Levin, Partner at WilmerHale explains.
