Smaller broker-dealers, registered investment advisers, investment companies, funding portals, and certain transfer agents must comply with the SEC's amended Regulation S-P by June 3, 2026.

The amendments require written incident-response programs, customer notification within 30 days for qualifying breaches, oversight of service providers, and documented safeguards for broadly defined customer information. The SEC has identified Regulation S-P compliance as a priority for fiscal year 2026 examinations.
