Joint Circular on the Cross-Sectoral Cyber Mapping Exercise

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority, Securities and Futures Commission, Insurance Authority, and Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Authority advise on the outcomes of the first cross-sectoral Cyber Mapping exercise, completed in March 2026. This exercise, involving over 50 financial institutions across various sectors, reaffirmed known systemic cyber risks but identified certain third-party service providers that may require increased supervisory attention due to common adoption patterns. The Authorities will integrate the Cyber Map into their day-to-day supervisory work for third-party risk and incident management and plan to make the Cyber Mapping exercise a recurring fixture, with the next iteration commencing in 2027/2028.
