The NFA’s recent Interpretive Notice on cybersecurity is poised to become effective in a matter of days. NFA members, including hedge fund managers registered with the NFA as commodity pool operators or commodity trading advisers, are now required to adopt an Information Systems Security Program. See “NFA Notice Provides Cybersecurity Guidance to Hedge Fund Managers Registered As CPOs and CTAs” (Nov. 19, 2015). To help NFA members prepare for the impending deadline, the NFA recently held a “Cybersecurity Workshop” featuring a number of senior NFA personnel and industry experts. Among other topics discussed during the presentation, panelists offered an overview of the requirements set out in the Notice and insight into what NFA examiners will look for after the notice takes effect. This article summarizes the panelists’ discussion of these issues. For more on CFTC and NFA requirements applicable to hedge fund managers, see our three-part CPO Compliance Series: “Conducting Business With Non-NFA Members (NFA Bylaw 1101)” (Sep. 6, 2012); “Marketing and Promotional Materials” (Oct. 4, 2012); and “Registration Obligations of Principals and Associated Persons” (Feb. 7, 2013).
