In 2022, across the organization, employees completed more than 4,627 training courses and 650 training hours, in addition to ongoing phishing simulations. In addition to carrying cyber security insurance, our talented Information Systems (IS) team partners with our Corporate Internal Audit team in managing Olympic Steel’s “Written Information Security Program” (WISP). The objective of this program is to provide effective administrative, technical and physical safeguards that protect Olympic Steel’s information assets. We also work closely with outside audit partners to ensure we continue to meet National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) cyber security standards. As further support, Olympic Steel’s Board of Directors receives updates at least annually and offers program recommendations and best practices to strengthen security efforts.
