The SAMA Cybersecurity Framework is a regulatory standard issued by the Saudi Central Bank, applicable to all regulated entities including banks, insurance companies, and fintech institutions operating in Saudi Arabia. It outlines governance, risk, and technical requirements aimed at strengthening the cybersecurity posture of the financial sector.
A SAMA assessment typically evaluates domains such as cybersecurity governance, risk management, access control, third-party security, data protection, business continuity, and cyber incident response. These controls must be implemented in alignment with maturity levels defined by SAMA’s guidelines.
