Article 33: Access Control

Oh no! No description found. But not to worry. Read from Tasks below how to advance this topic.

The financial entities referred to in Article 16(1) of Regulation (EU) 2022/2554 shall develop, document, and implement procedures for the control of logical and physical access and shall enforce, monitor, and periodically review those procedures. Those procedures shall contain the following elements of control of logical and physical access:

(a) access rights to information assets, ICT assets, and their supported functions, and to critical locations of operation of the financial entity, are managed on a need-to-know, need-to-use and least privileges basis, including for remote and emergency access;

(b) user accountability, which ensures that users can be identified for the actions performed in the ICT systems;

(c) account management procedures to grant, change, or revoke access rights for user and generic accounts, including generic administrator accounts;

(d) authentication methods that are commensurate to the classification referred to in Article 30(1) and to the overall risk profile of ICT assets, and which are based on leading practices;

(e) access rights are periodically reviewed and are withdrawn when no longer required.

For the purposes of point (c), the financial entity shall assign privileged, emergency, and administrator access on a need-to-use or an ad-hoc basis for all ICT systems, and shall be logged in accordance with Article 34, first paragraph, point (f).

For the purposes of point (d), financial entities shall use strong authentication methods that are based on leading practices for remote access to the financial entities’ network, for privileged access, and for access to ICT assets supporting critical or important functions that are publicly available.

The ISMS component hierachy

When building an ISMS, it's important to understand the different levels of information hierarchy. Here's how Cyberday is structured.

Framework

Sets the overall compliance standard or regulation your organization needs to follow.

Requirements

Break down the framework into specific obligations that must be met.

Tasks

Concrete actions and activities your team carries out to satisfy each requirement.

Policies

Documented rules and practices that are created and maintained as a result of completing tasks.

Never duplicate effort. Do it once - improve compliance across frameworks.

Reach multi-framework compliance in the simplest possible way
Security frameworks tend to share the same core requirements - like risk management, backup, malware, personnel awareness or access management.
Cyberday maps all frameworks’ requirements into shared tasks - one single plan that improves all frameworks’ compliance.
Do it once - we automatically apply it to all current and future frameworks.
