Vijayan, Chairman, Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI), Hemant Contractor, Chairman, Pension Funds Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA), and finance ministry representatives were present in the meeting.
The move to set up an emergency response team comes in the backdrop of growing cyberattacks in the financial system. RBI had already created a specialised cell (C-SITE) within its supervision department to conduct detailed IT examination of banks’ cybersecurity preparedness, to identify the gaps and to monitor the progress of remedial measures. More than 30 major banks were to be covered by the detailed IT examination in 2016-17 and all banks are to be covered by 2017-18.
