Bank Negara Policy Document On IT Risk Management

Cybersecurity and IT governance have become increasingly important for regulatory compliance. Global Central Banks are demanding explicit IT risk management policies, processes, and procedures to safeguard information assets against rising technology risks emanating from corporate insiders, third-parties, and advanced cyber threats. In this context, Identity and Access Management (IAM) will be critical for regulatory compliance. In this paper, ARCON discusses how its robust stack of IAM solutions can enable enterprise information risk management teams to comply with the mandates given by Bank Negara, Malaysia.

The Bank Negara Malaysia policy paper S 10.61 explicitly mandates that access controls to enterprise-wide systems are effectively managed and monitored and user activities in critical systems are logged for audit and investigations.
