Introducing CEFEX DOL Cybersecurity Verification

Broadridge's CEFEX certification program now includes an optional "DOL Cybersecurity Verification" for advisors and recordkeepers. This is offered using an additional questionnaire within the existing CEFEX assessment based on the DOL Cybersecurity Program Best Practices, published in April 2021.

The CEFEX Analyst confirms the firm follows DOL best practices related to cybersecurity by reviewing documents and records of action taken to adhere to these practices. If the verification is successful, the scope of the service provider’s CEFEX certification will indicate the following:
"including processes designed to satisfy the Department of Labor's Cybersecurity Program Best Practices".

Benefits
