Secure Tertiary Data Backup (STDB) is Coming - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) has instructed banks to “critically assess” the need for setting up a Secure Tertiary Data Backup (STDB) to guard against destructive malwares like ransomwares. In response to the HKMA’s call, the Hong Kong Association of Banks (HKAB) formed a STDB Taskforce to oversee the development of the guidelines. Authorized Institutions (AIs) in Hong Kong are expected to submit a report containing the result of their assessment to the HKMA by November 2021. The STDB Guideline contains eight principle-based guidelines that AIs could consider to enhance their controls for recovering and restoring critical data to facilitate the resumption of critical functions, services and systems in a prompt manner in the event of destructive cyber-attacks, such as ransomware attacks. Thales, together with the Commvault and NetApp, the industry leading vendors in data management, backup and recovery to co-host a webinar to share the latest update about the latest STDB guidelines, its related solution design and implementation.
