The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has been the backbone of the country's financial stability since 1935, ensuring secure banking and a strong economy. As the central bank, it regulates monetary policy, oversees banks, and safeguards financial transactions.
To keep pace with the digital era, RBI enforces regulations under Section 35A of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949, and strengthens cybersecurity measures across the financial sector. It has introduced guidelines like IT Governance, Risk, and Compliance (IT GRC), Digital Payment Security Controls (DPSC), and cybersecurity frameworks to help banks and financial institutions stay protected against evolving cyber threats.
With these initiatives, the RBI continues to create a secure and resilient financial ecosystem, ensuring confidence and trust in India's financial sector.
