NABARD Cyber Security Framework

NABARD Cyber Security Framework

National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD) is an apex development finance institution fully owned by Government of India. The bank has been entrusted with “matters concerning policy, planning, and operations in the field of credit for agriculture and other economic activities in rural areas in India”. NABARD is active in developing & implementing Financial Inclusion. 

The Cyber Security Policy should be distinct from the IT/IS Policy of the UCB so that it highlights the risks from cyber threats and the measures to address/reduce these risks. While identifying and assessing the inherent risks, UCBs should keep in view the technologies adopted, delivery channels, digital products being offered, internal and external threats etc., and rate each of these risks as Low, Medium, High and Very High.

Managing cyber risk requires the commitment of the entire organization to create a cyber-safe environment. This will require a high level of awareness among staff at all levels including Board and Top Management. UCBs should actively promote among their customers, vendors, service providers and other concerned parties an understanding of its cyber security objectives. Security awareness among customers, employees, vendors, service providers, etc. about the potential impact of cyber-attacks helps in cyber security preparedness of UCBs.

Digital Task Force Provides Information Security Audits, Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing (VAPT), Drafting of Cyber & ISMS Policies & Procedures as suggested by Reserve Bank of India. After successful Audits and Drafting of Policies, we also provide monitoring and implementation of drafted Policies & Procedures through our AMC (Annual Maintenance Contract).

    Creating a proper forensic disk image is a very easy task that can be efficiently performed with the help of the tools in the forensic toolkit.

    The basic thing that we need to keep in mind, that no data should be altered or removed in any way from the disk. So , whenever the disk is used in a Windows Environment, the windows creates several log files and some other files on the system, and can even manipulate USB records etc.

    So , to prevent this and run the disk safely in a windows environment, we use a special Device called a WRITE BLOCKER. Its Simple motive is to prevent any data alteration on the media under investigation.
