Cyber Security Requirements

Definition ∞ Cyber security requirements are the mandatory technical and organizational measures designed to protect information systems, networks, and data from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction. These requirements establish a baseline for digital protection. They typically involve a combination of policies, processes, and technologies to safeguard digital assets.
Context ∞ For digital asset platforms and blockchain infrastructure, robust cyber security requirements are paramount due to the high value and irreversible nature of transactions. Regulatory bodies increasingly mandate specific security standards to mitigate risks of hacks, fraud, and data breaches. Adherence to these requirements is critical for maintaining user trust and ensuring the stability of the digital asset market.
