1. Resumen

,
Título Regulación
Artículo 18 1

1.   Las entidades financieras clasificarán los incidentes relacionados con las TIC y determinarán su repercusión con arreglo a los siguientes criterios:

a)

número y/o pertinencia de los clientes o las contrapartes financieras afectados y, cuando proceda, la cantidad o el número de transacciones afectadas por el incidente relacionado con las TIC, y si dicho incidente ha repercutido en la reputación;

b)

duración del incidente relacionado con las TIC, incluida la duración de la interrupción del servicio;

c)

extensión geográfica de las zonas afectadas por el incidente relacionado con las TIC, en especial si afecta a más de dos Estados miembros;

d)

pérdidas de datos que el incidente relacionado con las TIC acarree, en relación con la disponibilidad, la autenticidad, la integridad o la confidencialidad de los datos;

e)

carácter esencial de los servicios afectados, incluidas las transacciones y operaciones de la entidad financiera;

f)

las consecuencias económicas, en particular los costes y las pérdidas directos e indirectos, del incidente relacionado con las TIC, tanto en términos absolutos como relativos.

Artículo 18 2

2.   Las entidades financieras clasificarán las ciberamenazas como importantes en función del carácter esencial de los servicios en situación de riesgo, incluidas las transacciones y operaciones de la entidad financiera, el número y/o la pertinencia de los clientes o de las contrapartes financieras a las que se dirigen las amenazas y la extensión geográfica de las zonas de riesgo.

Artículo 18 3

3.   Las Autoridades Europeas de Supervisión, a través del Comité Mixto y en consulta con el BCE y la ENISA, elaborarán proyectos de normas técnicas de regulación comunes en las que se especificará más detalladamente lo siguiente:

a)

los criterios expuestos en el apartado 1, y en concreto los umbrales de importancia relativa para determinar los incidentes graves relacionados con las TIC o, según corresponda, los incidentes operativos o de seguridad graves relacionados con los pagos que son de obligada notificación con arreglo al artículo 19, apartado 1;

b)

los criterios que deberán aplicar las autoridades competentes para evaluar la relevancia de los incidentes graves relacionados con las TIC o, según corresponda, los incidentes operativos o de seguridad graves relacionados con los pagos, para las autoridades competentes pertinentes de otros Estados miembros, y los detalles de las notificaciones de incidentes graves relacionados con las TIC o, según corresponda, incidentes operativos o de seguridad graves relacionados con los pagos, que deberán compartirse con otras autoridades competentes en virtud del artículo 19, apartados 6 y 7;

c)

los criterios establecidos en el apartado 2 del presente artículo, incluidos umbrales de importancia relativa elevados para determinar las ciberamenazas importantes.

Artículo 18 4

4.   Cuando elaboren los proyectos de normas técnicas de regulación comunes a que se refiere el apartado 3 del presente artículo, las Autoridades Europeas de Supervisión tendrán en cuenta los criterios establecidos en el artículo 4, apartado 2, así como las normas internacionales, las orientaciones y las especificaciones elaboradas y publicadas por la ENISA, incluidas, cuando proceda, las especificaciones para otros sectores económicos. A efectos de la aplicación de los criterios establecidos en el artículo 4, apartado 2, las Autoridades Europeas de Supervisión tendrán debidamente en cuenta la necesidad de que las microempresas y las pequeñas y medianas empresas movilicen recursos y capacidades suficientes para garantizar una gestión rápida de los incidentes relacionado con las TIC.

Las Autoridades Europeas de Supervisión presentarán a la Comisión dichos proyectos de normas técnicas de regulación comunes a más tardar el 17 de enero de 2024.

Se delegan en la Comisión los poderes para completar el presente Reglamento mediante la adopción de las normas técnicas de regulación a que se refiere el apartado 3 de conformidad con los artículos 10 a 14 del Reglamento (UE) n.o 1093/2010, los artículos 10 a 14 del Reglamento (UE) n.o 1094/2010 y los artículos 10 a 14 del Reglamento (UE) n.o 1095/2010.

SCR-CMM

Level 0 Not Performed

Practices are non-existent, based on the inability to demonstrate an implemented and operational capability. A reasonable person would conclude the control is not being performed.

Level 1 Performed Informally

SCR-CMM Level 1 criteria definitions are not available for this control:
▪ A reasonable person would conclude this control requires a structured process.
▪ At this level of maturity, the "ad hoc" nature of performing a capability informally would indicate the intent of the control is not met due to a lack of consistency and formality.

Level 2 Planned Tracked

Incident Response (IRO) capabilities are requirements-driven, but are not standardized across the entity (e.g., local/regional level consistency). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with IRO domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with DCH domain capabilities are documented and maintained by process owners.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel work with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with IRO domain capabilities to address applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD).
▪ Incident response-related controls are primarily administrative and preventative in nature (e.g., policies, standards and procedures & guidelines).
▪ Incident response management may be a defined function (e.g., team or department) or assigned as an additional duty to existing IT and/or cybersecurity personnel.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel operate an incident response capability using a documented and tested Incident Response Plan (IRP) to facilitate incident management operations that cover preparation, detection and analysis, containment, eradication and recovery.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel facilitate prompt response to suspected or confirmed security incidents, including timely notification to affected stakeholders.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel operate facilitate basic forensic investigations in the event of a suspected or confirmed security incident.
▪ The IRP contains eDiscovery processes to support Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) requirements for eDiscovery practices.
▪ IT personnel support incident response operations by provisioning and deprovisioning incident responders with temporary emergency accounts.

Level 3 Well Defined

Incident Response (IRO) capabilities are standardized across the entity for applicability to People, Processes, Technologies, Data and/or Facilities (PPTDF) to ensure consistency for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with IRO domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function.
▪ Cybersecurity personnel operate an incident response capability using a documented and tested Incident Response Plan (IRP) to facilitate incident management operations that cover preparation, detection and analysis, containment, eradication and recovery.
▪ An incident response team, or similar function, is appropriately staffed and supported to implement and maintain IRO domain capabilities.
▪ Technology is leveraged to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of incident response operations (e.g., incident management software).
▪ The entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function, works with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with IRO domain capabilities to address Minimum Compliance Requirements (MCR) (e.g., applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements) and Discretionary Security Requirements (DSR) (e.g., entity-required controls).
▪ An implemented and operational capability exists to cover:
(1) Preparation;
(2) Automated event detection or manual incident report intake;
(3) Analysis;
(4) Containment;
(5) Eradication; and
(6) Recovery.

Level 4 Quantitatively Controlled

Incident Response (IRO) capabilities, in addition to being standardized across the entity and centrally managed to ensure consistency across Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD), efforts are metrics driven to provide sufficient insight for decision makers to predict optimal performance, ensure continued operations and/or identify areas for improvement. Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Applicable SCR-CMM Level 3 (Well Defined) capabilities are implemented and operational.
▪ Metrics reporting includes quantitative analysis of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
▪ Metrics reporting includes quantitative analysis of Key Risk Indicators (KRIs).
▪ Scope of metrics, KPIs and KRIs covers organization-wide cybersecurity and data protection controls, including functions performed by third-parties.
▪ Organizational leadership maintains a formal process to objectively review and respond to metrics, KPIs and KRIs (e.g., monthly or quarterly review).
▪ Based on metrics analysis, process improvement recommendations are submitted for review and are handled in accordance with change control processes.
▪ Business and technical stakeholders are involved in reviewing and approving proposed changes to evolve capabilities.

Level 5 Continuously Improving

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 or Level 4 (if available) criteria definitions:
▪ There are no defined Level 5 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a continuously-improving process is not necessary to operationalize this control.
▪ Level 5 capabilities should be considered “world-class” where the control builds on Level 4 capabilities, but are continuously improving through Artificial Intelligence (AI) and/or Machine Learning (ML) technologies.
▪ While it may be possible to develop responsive capabilities for this control through the use of AI and/or ML technologies, the criteria would be organization-specific to define.
