RBI Cyber Security Framework
- Elevating Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity with RBI’s Cyber Security Framework
- The “Cyber Security Framework in Banks” circular, issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), stands as a beacon guiding Indian banks toward fortified cyber defenses.
- In an era where digital products and services form the lifeblood of banking, this framework establishes the gold standard for creating and implementing advanced cybersecurity measures
RBI's cybersecurity framework encompasses three pivotal domains:
- Establish Cyber Security Baseline and Resilience: This cornerstone ensures that banks build a robust foundation for cybersecurity, fostering resilience against evolving threats.
- Operate Cyber Security Operations Centre (C-SOC): An integral component of the framework, C-SOC serves as the nerve center for monitoring, threat detection, and rapid response, fortifying a bank’s cybersecurity posture.
- Cyber Security Incident Reporting (CSIR): Effective incident reporting mechanisms are paramount. The framework mandates banks to establish seamless channels for reporting and managing cyber incidents promptly.

Our expertise enables us to provide an in-depth examination of the RBI Cyber Security Framework for Banks. We offer comprehensive insights, ensuring banks can not only comprehend but also effectively implement the framework’s requirements.
