Time is Running Out!

As the deadline for compliance with Circular CSSF 24/847 on ICT-related incident reporting framework rapidly approaches, financial institutions are facing mounting pressure to ensure their systems are up to standard. With the 1st of April deadline just around the corner, it's imperative for organisations to act swiftly to avoid potential penalties and reputational damage.

One recent case highlights the severity of non-compliance. The Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) recently imposed Deutsche Bank AG with a hefty administrative fine of 50,000 euros. The fine stemmed from BaFin's discovery that the bank had provided incorrect information regarding a significant IT security incident related to payment services in 2023. Furthermore, Deutsche Bank AG had failed to promptly notify BaFin of the incident, exacerbating the situation.
