1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Cybersecurity Risk Rating Tool

1.1.1 The Malaysian financial sector is progressively facing a steady

subservient shift and dependence in terms of technology to

deliver critical financial services. This has resulted in Bank

proactively assess the external cyber risk ecosystem

and to measure the cyber rating levels of financial

institutions;

1.1.2.3 Lack of capability to proactively assess the level of

exposure of critical IT vulnerabilities and determining

the industry exposure level; and

1.1.3 In this regard, BNM is seeking proposal for this RFP to

implement a cybersecurity risk rating tool to automate the

collection and analysis of externally available risk data and

assess the financial institutions cyber hygiene and industry risk

exposure.
