Welcome to the Centre for International Central Bank Dialogue
Cyber Security at National Central Banks – Good Governance and Strategic Perspectives, from 01.06.2027 till 04.06.2027 in Frankfurt
Objective
As digital transformation accelerates, cybersecurity has become a key element of resilience and good governance in central banks. New technologies – such as cloud computing, digital currencies, and interconnected payment systems – offer opportunities for innovation but also introduce significant risks related to resilience, data protection, business continuity, and financial stability.
This expert panel provides a platform for national central banks to exchange experiences on strategic and operational aspects of cyber security. The programme focuses on how governance, risk management, and long-term strategies can strengthen cyber resilience. Participants will discuss best practices, case studies, and challenges in aligning cyber security with central bank responsibilities, digital transformation objectives, and supervisory frameworks.
