Companies disclose more on cybersecurity – but markets remain indifferent

U.S. companies are reporting on cybersecurity in greater detail, yet stock market reactions remain muted. A new study by the University of Vaasa and 911 shows that mandatory cybersecurity disclosure does not prompt reactions from investors or stock analysts.
