CBB Cybersecurity Requirements Consultation
The Central Bank of Bahrain proposes amended cybersecurity rules requiring financial licensees to use a single unified private email domain and prohibit third-party domains for customer communications. The consultation further mandates the exclusion of all URLs and clickable links from SMS, emails, and short messages to mitigate phishing risks and data breaches. Licensees must evaluate their communication methods and submit comments on these proposed measures by 5 June 2022.
