Title
Bangladesh to Launch CERT-Fin

About
To help prevent cyberattacks, Bangladesh is likely to launch a computer emergency response team, or CERT, for its financial sector this year, says Debdulal Roy, executive director of Bangladesh Bank. But the timing will depend on how long the COVID-19 crisis continues.

Key findings
"CERT-Fin will exclusively concentrate on the financial industry for emergency security and take immediate measures for remedy after any cyberattack," Roy says. "It will also monitor and provide necessary support or advisories to help prevent probable and imminent cyberattacks as well as exchange information between all connected financial institutions." Currently the requirement is too much for existing BGD e-GOV CERT team. Plan is to have CERT for each industry sector.
