Sama Compliance of Saudi Arabia
- In the realm of financial security in Saudi Arabia, the watchful guardian is none other than the Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority (SAMA), the central bank of the kingdom.
- SAMA has taken proactive steps to guide regional enterprises in the effective stewardship of their invaluable information assets and online services. This initiative found its expression in the form of the SAMA Cyber Security Framework, a comprehensive framework introduced in 2017.
- The ambit of the Cyber Security Framework is sweeping, encompassing all financial institutions under the purview of SAMA. This includes Saudi Arabian banks, insurance companies, and financial entities, all of whom are entrusted with adhering to its tenets.
- Preparation for SAMA compliance commences with the formulation and execution of a robust data protection strategy. Here, the fusion of data wiping and encryption emerges as a formidable and pragmatic approach, fortifying the defenses against potential cyber threats.
Why is SAMA Compliance Vital?
- The SAMA Cyber Security Framework serves as a tapestry interwoven with the best practices of renowned industry and government frameworks, including but not limited to NIST, PCI DSS, ISO 27001/27002, and Basel II. It provides organizations with a holistic guide to combat the ever-expanding spectrum of cyber threats.
- By embracing the Protective Framework outlined by SAMA, organizations can attain a baseline of security, enabling them to not only survive but thrive amidst the evolving cyber landscape.
- The mantle of the Compliance Standard and Framework extends to all financial institutions governed by SAMA, collectively known as Member Organizations. This broad spectrum encompasses Saudi Arabian banks, insurance conglomerates, and financial institutions.
