Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy

We have developed and implemented a cybersecurity risk management program intended to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our critical systems and information.

We design and assess our program based on multiple cybersecurity frameworks, such as the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework (NIST CSF) and ISO 27001. This does not imply that we meet any particular technical standards, specifications, or requirements, only that we use the NIST CSF, ISO 27001 and other frameworks as guides to help us identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks relevant to our business. Our program is assessed by third-party security auditors on a yearly basis through our SOC II Type 2 and SOX audit processes.

Our cybersecurity risk management program isintegrated into our overall risk management program, and shares common methodologies, reporting channels and governance processes that apply across the risk management program to other legal, compliance, strategic, operational, and financial risk areas.

Key elements of our cybersecurity risk management program include but are not limited to the following:

•

risk assessments designed to help identify material risks from cybersecurity threats to our critical systems and, information;

•

a security team principally responsible for managing (1) our cybersecurity risk assessment processes, (2) our security controls, and (3) our response to cybersecurity incidents;

•

the use of external service providers, where appropriate, to assess, test or otherwise assist with aspects of our security processes;

•

the use of external service providers, where appropriate, to monitor our cybersecurity posture on a 24/7 basis in a co-managed Security Operations Center (SOC);

•

the design and deployment of a Defense-In-Depth layered technical security implementation leveraging best-of-breed components;

•

cybersecurity awareness training of our employees, including incident response personnel and senior management;

•

a cybersecurity incident response plan that includes procedures for responding to cybersecurity incidents; and

•

a third-party risk management process for key service providers, based on our assessment of their criticality to our operations and respective risk profile.

We have not identified risks from known cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any prior cybersecurity incidents, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our operations, business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. We face risks from cybersecurity threats that, if realized, are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our operations, business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. See “Risk Factors –An unauthorized or significant inadvertent disclosure or breach of confidential and/or personal information we process or control, or a security breach of our or our customers’, suppliers’, or other partners’ IT Systems could be detrimental to our business, reputation, financial performance and results of operations.”

Cybersecurity Governance

Our Board considers cybersecurity risk as part of its risk oversight function and has delegated to the Audit Committee (Committee) the oversight of cybersecurity risks, including management’s implementation of our cybersecurity risk management program.

The Committee receives regular reports from management on our cybersecurity risks. In addition, management updates the Committee, where it deems appropriate, regarding any cybersecurity incidents it considers to be significant or potentially significant.

The Committee reports to the full Board regarding its activities, including those related to cybersecurity. The full Board also receives periodic briefings from management on our cyber risk management program. Board members receive presentations on cybersecurity topics from our Chief Information Officer (CIO), internal security staff or external experts as part of the Board’s continuing education on topics that impact public companies.

Our management team, including our CIO, Chief Information Security Office (CISO) and General Counsel, is responsible for assessing and managing our material risks from cybersecurity threats. The team has primary responsibility for our overall cybersecurity risk management program and supervises both our internal cybersecurity personnel and our retained external cybersecurity consultants. Our CIO (to whom the CISO reports) regularly attends meetings of the Committee. Our management team’s experience includes decades of experience working in information security, advanced education, and information security certifications. Kurt Baumgarten, CISO, has a long history of successfully leading Information Security Programs across a diverse array of organizations such as Linedata SA, Indigo Ag, and Matterport. Kurt has multiple security certifications, such as CISA, CRISC, CDPSE, CGEIT, and has earned a master’s degree in information security from Norwich University as well as an MBA with a concentration in e-commerce. Dr. Jeffry Nimeroff, CIO, has a 25-year history of building technology groups and integrating Information Security programs at organizations ranging from startups like Hotsocket and Pet360 to established companies at various points in their lifecycle like CDnow, and Bertelsmann Music Group. Dr. Nimeroff has a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Pennsylvania.

Our management team takes steps to stay informed about and monitor efforts to prevent, detect, mitigate, and remediate cybersecurity risks and incidents through various means, which may include briefings from internal security personnel; threat intelligence and other information obtained from governmental, public or private sources, including external consultants engaged by us; and alerts and reports produced by security tools deployed in our IT environment.
