RTS ICT Risk Management T. II Ch. I Sec. 4 Art. 7 , 2

2. Financial entities shall identify and implement controls to protect cryptographic keys through their whole lifecycle against loss, unauthorised access, disclosure, and modification. Financial entities shall design those controls on the basis of the results of the approved data classification and the ICT risk assessment.

Standards
NOREA Data Encryption
Define rules for encrypting data at rest, in transit, and, where applicable, in use, considering data classification and risk assessments. Specify procedures when encryption of data in use is not feasible, ensuring processing in a separate and protected environment or taking equivalent measures. Implement rules for encrypting internal network connections and traffic with external parties, aligned with data classification and risk assessments.
NOREA Cryptographic Key Management and Lifecycle
Establish protocols for the proper use, protection, and lifecycle management of cryptographic keys. Define criteria for selecting cryptographic techniques and practices, incorporating best practices and industry standards. Employ mitigation and monitoring measures if adherence to these practices and standards is not possible. Outline requirements for managing and controlling cryptographic keys throughout their lifecycle, including generation, storage, backup, archiving, retrieval, transmission, retirement, revocation, and destruction. Establish methods to recover cryptographic keys in case of loss, compromise, or damage. Monitor crypto-analysis developments and, when necessary, update or change cryptographic technology. Implement mitigation and monitoring measures if changing or updating the cryptographic technology is not feasible. Maintain a register for all certificates and certificate storing devices.
