Tanium Launches Cybersecurity Compliance Framework for Malaysian Financial Sector
Tanium has launched a new endpoint compliance and incident response framework aimed at helping Malaysian banks and financial institutions comply with cybersecurity requirements set by Bank Negara Malaysia.
The framework is designed to support compliance with BNM’s Risk Management in Technology (RMiT) guidelines and the Management of Customer Information and Permitted Disclosures (MCIPD) policy, as regulators increase scrutiny of how financial institutions prevent and respond to cyber incidents.
According to Tanium, the framework provides real-time visibility into endpoint security across financial institutions’ IT environments, allowing organisations to continuously monitor compliance, isolate compromised devices and maintain audit trails for regulators and boards.
“Regulators in Malaysia are actively raising the bar on cybersecurity and enforcing it,” said Satyen Desai. He added that financial institutions can no longer rely on periodic assessments as cyber threats and vulnerabilities evolve rapidly.
The company said the platform is intended to help banks move from reactive compliance processes to continuous monitoring and faster incident response, particularly as endpoint devices remain a key target for cyberattacks.
