About this statute

This provision says the regulation aims to ensure regulated institutions use resilient ICT and cybersecurity systems that support protection, detection, response, recovery, risk management, and critical operations. This provision says the regulation applies to all regulated institutions unless a specific regulation or directive provides otherwise. This provision defines key terms and says regulated institutions must have a robust ICT security governance framework, with responsibility resting on the board and senior management. Board and senior management are responsible for cyber security governance, and regulated institutions must maintain a comprehensive cyber security governance framework. The Supervisory Authority may require or exempt a regulated institution from having a board-level IT Committee, depending on the institution’s activity and complexity, unless a specific regulation says otherwise.
