RBI Cyber Security Framework For Urban Cooperative Banks
Determine the effectiveness of IT Security Controls
Need for Cyber Security Framework
Urban Cooperative Banks’ use of information technology has expanded quickly and is now a key component of their operational strategy. The financial services industry topped the list of 26 different industries that are most targeted by cybercriminals. Financial services remain the industry most susceptible to malicious email traffickers, as consumers are seven times more likely to be the victim of an attack originating from a spoofed email with a bank brand versus one from any other industry.
How it works?
Audit Methodology
The Cyber Security Framework for Banks is audited corresponding to the below audit domains. These domains are segregated based on the Level designated for the concerned UCB. Also, the applicability of domains differs as per the Bank’s Level i.e., Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, or Level 4.
We share audit charter with the auditee highlighting the roles and responsibilities of the audit function as well as the audit objectives.
