In a 6 to 3 vote the Supreme Court did a way with the Chevron deference. By saying that “Courts must exercise their independent judgment in deciding whether an agency has acted within its statutory authority.” Furthermore, “that courts may not defer to an agency’s interpretation of the law simply because a statute enacted by Congress is ambiguous.” This has the potential to weaken or substantially alter all federal agency cybersecurity requirements ever adopted, and the series of cyber regulatory initiatives implemented over the past four years could be challenged. Parties who previously objected to these initiatives but were possibly reluctant to fight due to the Chevron deference will likely be encouraged to challenge these regulations. For the CISOs, this means they should expect some court cases to water down or eliminate many existing cybersecurity regulatory requirements. #SEC #SCOUS #CISA

“The future of expert witnesses in international arbitration is a fascinating topic. From shifts in the legal, political and regulatory landscapes, to heightened economic uncertainty, supply chain disruption and increases in cyber security threats, there are many unknowns.” Enzo Carlucci, CA IFA CBV at KPMG Canada features as an Exceptional Expert in our Power Players report on International Arbitration, imparting his insights.

"The U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision in the case of Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo could significantly disrupt federal cybersecurity regulations. The ruling shifts ultimate regulatory approval from agencies to the courts, potentially weakening regulations like SEC incident reporting and FCC data breach reporting. This decision overturns the Chevron deference, a 1984 precedent that instructed courts to defer to regulatory agencies’ expertise in interpreting congressional intent. Now, courts will independently decide if agencies have acted within their statutory authority, leading to potential legal challenges against many existing cyber regulations. This shift could create uncertainty for CISOs as conflicting judicial decisions emerge, potentially diluting or eliminating current cybersecurity requirements." #SupremeCourt #Cybersecurity #ChevronDeference #CybersecurityLaw https://lnkd.in/d76BiTdq

https://lnkd.in/eMbpS48e Well. doing and undoing I guess? While we prepare for the NIS2 landing in Europe, striving to harmonize obligations, and companies subject to it and so on... learning from NIS1 shortcomings... we might have some sort of a diverse landscape to cope with inside the US. Infighting for or against a regulation, having a heterogeneous state of obligations is not helping in defending against bad actors. It does not help resilience. It does not help economical stability that demands (cyber)security as a foundation.
