Cybersecurity Governance (SAMA CSF Domain 1)

CSF Domain 1
حوكمة الأمن السيبراني (المجال الأول من إطار ساما)

Definition

The first domain of SAMA CSF that establishes requirements for organizational leadership, accountability, and strategic oversight of cybersecurity programs within financial institutions. This domain mandates board-level cybersecurity oversight, appointment of qualified Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) with direct reporting lines to senior management, development of comprehensive cybersecurity strategies aligned with business objectives, establishment of risk management frameworks, and allocation of adequate resources. It emphasizes integration of cybersecurity into enterprise risk management and requires regular reporting to SAMA on the institution's cybersecurity posture.

التعريف بالعربية

المجال الأول من إطار ساما للأمن السيبراني الذي يحدد متطلبات القيادة التنظيمية والمساءلة والإشراف الاستراتيجي على برامج الأمن السيبراني داخل المؤسسات المالية. يفرض هذا المجال الإشراف على الأمن السيبراني على مستوى مجلس الإدارة، وتعيين مسؤولي أمن معلومات رئيسيين مؤهلين مع خطوط إبلاغ مباشرة للإدارة العليا، وتطوير استراتيجيات شاملة للأمن السيبراني متوافقة مع أهداف العمل، وإنشاء أطر إدارة المخاطر، وتخصيص الموارد الكافية. يؤكد على دمج الأمن السيبراني في إدارة مخاطر المؤسسة ويتطلب تقديم تقارير منتظمة إلى ساما حول وضع الأمن السيبراني للمؤسسة.

Practical Example

A Saudi insurance company establishes cybersecurity governance by creating a Board Cybersecurity Committee that meets quarterly, appointing a CISO who reports directly to the CEO, developing a three-year cybersecurity strategy aligned with Vision 2030 digital initiatives, implementing a cybersecurity risk register integrated with enterprise risk management, conducting annual cybersecurity awareness training for all board members, and submitting semi-annual cybersecurity posture reports to SAMA demonstrating compliance with governance requirements.
