Cybersecurity Risk Management, Strategy, and Governance [Line Items]
Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]	Assessment and Management of Cybersecurity Risks: Urban One has implemented a structured approach to assessing, identifying, and managing cybersecurity risks. This framework includes ongoing monitoring of threats, the implementation of security controls, and proactive adaptation to evolving risks. Our cybersecurity strategy is designed to safeguard corporate assets, data, and critical systems while ensuring operational resilience. In response to the evolving threat landscape, the Company has continued to enhance its cybersecurity risk management practices, including strengthening identity controls, expanding endpoint visibility, and increasing the use of external cybersecurity expertise to support monitoring and response capabilities. Our cybersecurity risk management process includes: •Continuous enterprise-wide risk monitoring to assess and respond to emerging cyber threats, supported by enhanced telemetry and threat intelligence to improve detection and response timelines. Our enterprise risk management assesses the characteristics and circumstances of the evolving business environment and seeks to identify both the potential impacts to our company of a particular risk and the speed with which the risk may manifest; •The deployment of technical security controls, including encryption, endpoint detection and response, and network security protections across our enterprise; •Enterprise-wide employee security awareness programs, including social engineering and phishing simulations and mandatory training; •Collaboration with external cybersecurity experts for penetration testing, vulnerability management, and incident response support; and •Security evaluations for vendors and other third-party service providers to help mitigate supply chain risks. These evaluations include reviewing our service provider and vendor management programs and the related agreements to require prompt notification of cyber incidents, outages and software vulnerabilities to facilitate timely assessment and disclosure of third-party cyber risks. Generally, we require our third-party providers to abide by confidentiality and security processes, particularly for third-party data-processing activities. Our evaluations also include inquiries about the vendor’s or service provider’s cybersecurity history, including any breaches or other incidents. Our third-party security evaluations are limited by their disclosures; therefore, a risk-based approach is used in making vendor and contractual decisions based on those disclosures and the totality of the circumstances, such as whether the third party will have access to personal information or our network, including incident response readiness and escalation coordination. Through these measures, Urban One is committed to maintaining a strong cybersecurity posture and protecting against potential security threats. Material Effects of Cybersecurity Threats and Incidents: Cybersecurity threats have the potential to impact our operations, financial condition, and reputation. While we have not experienced any material cybersecurity incidents during the reporting period, we recognize that such incidents could result in: •Disruption of operations, impacting revenue and productivity; •Unauthorized access to or theft of sensitive data, potentially leading to regulatory and legal implications; and •Reputational harm, affecting customer trust and investor confidence. Urban One employs continuous threat monitoring, security awareness initiatives, and incident response protocols to mitigate these risks. Our security team remains focused on maintaining a proactive and adaptive security strategy to minimize the likelihood and impact of cybersecurity incidents. In doing so, the Company uses both internal and external resources to implement, monitor, test and execute the company’s risk management strategy. The Company continues to evaluate cybersecurity risks and incidents, including those occurring subsequent to the reporting period, in accordance with applicable disclosure requirements.
