With the SEC’s recent amendments to Regulation S-P, there are increased requirements around data governance, vendor oversight, breach identification, incident response, and notification to affected parties. Amended Regulation S-P became effective on December 3, 2025 for large advisers, and will be effective on June 3, 2026 for smaller advisers.
