Risk Management in Technology (RMiT) guidelines issued by Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) provide binding requirements concerning technology risks and operational resilience in the Malaysian financial sector. Fully effective since September 2026 after its update in November 2025, this guideline requires active protection against cyber threats, continuous monitoring via the Security Operations Centre, and reporting to BNM within an hour of any notable incident. More information on regulatory changes can be found on the Bank Negara Malaysia website.
