FY21 ESG Disclosures July 2022 Unaudited 66 monitoring, testing and reporting; operational and incident response and reporting; and training and awareness. To validate the effectiveness of our systems at least annually we conduct tests of our business continuity, contingency plans and incident response procedures. We also conduct third-party vulnerability analysis including simulated hacker attacks and conduct our own monthly vulnerability assessments. All employees are required to take annual cybersecurity awareness training. New hires are also required to take cybersecurity awareness training during onboarding. Quarterly phishing campaigns are also conducted with remedial training required for failures to recognize phishing. Policies require all employees to notify Cybersecurity of any suspicious items. We do not release training results or related information on our employees due to the sensitivity and proprietary nature of the information. As part of our cybersecurity governance, we utilize a Cybersecurity Steering Committee comprising executive management, operational leaders and cross-functional teams. Generally, this committee meets quarterly, or as frequently as appropriate, to review, assess and direct decision related to cybersecurity and information systems matters. The Board recognizes the importance of maintaining the trust and confidence of our customers, contractors, partners, and employees. As a part of its objective, independent oversight of the key risks facing the Company, the Board devotes significant time and attention to data and systems protection, including cybersecurity and information security risk. Additional information on the Board’s role in cybersecurity governance can be found in the 2022 Proxy Statement Cybersecurity Governance Highlights (pp. 16–17).
