         ODLUKA (EU) 2021/1758 EUROPSKE SREDIŠNJE BANKE
         od 21. rujna 2021.
         o izmjeni Odluke ESB/2007/7 o uvjetima sustava TARGET2-ECB (ESB/2021/43)
         IZVRŠNI ODBOR EUROPSKE SREDIŠNJE BANKE,
         uzimajući u obzir Ugovor o funkcioniranju Europske unije, a posebno prvu i četvrtu alineju njegova članka 127. stavka 2.,
         uzimajući u obzir Statut Europskoga sustava središnjih banaka i Europske središnje banke, a posebno njegov članak 11. stavak 6. i članke 17., 22. i 23.,
         budući da:

                     (1)

                     Upravno vijeće je 20. srpnja 2021. izmijenilo (1) Smjernicu ESB/2012/27 Europske središnje banke (2), kako bi se: (a) pojasnilo da će imatelji DCA-a za TIPS i imatelji DCA-a za sustav T2S od studenoga 2021. odnosno od lipnja 2022. biti povezani sa sustavom TARGET2 preko jedinstvenog portala za pristup tržišnoj infrastrukturi Eurosustava; (b) pojasnila i proširila pravila o pridržavanju zahtjeva vezanih uz sigurnost krajnje točke sustava TARGET2 kako bi se osiguralo da se sustav TARGET2 nastavlja razvijati radi suočavanja s prijetnjama u području kibersigurnosti; (c) nametnuo zahtjev imateljima PM računa, njihovim neizravnim sudionicima i dostupnim imateljima BIC-a koji su pristupili SCT Inst shemi potpisivanjem Sporazuma o pristupanju SEPA trenutačnom kreditnom transferu da budu i ostanu stalno dostupni na platformi TIPS putem DCA-a za TIPS kako bi se osiguralo da su trenutačna plaćanja dostupna u cijeloj Uniji; (d) uspostavila transparentnost u pogledu načina prijenosa salda s računa sudionika u sustavu TARGET2 na odgovarajuće račune sljednike u budućem sustavu TARGET kako bi se osigurala pravna sigurnost; te (e) pojasnili i ažurirali drugi aspekti Smjernice ESB/2012/27.

                     (2)

                     Nakon što projekt konsolidacije sustava T2-T2S postane operativan, bit će također potrebno osigurati transparentnost u pogledu načina prijenosa salda s računa sudionika u sustavu TARGET2-ECB na odgovarajuće račune sljednika kako bi se osigurala pravna sigurnost.

                     (3)

                     Izmjene izvršene u Smjernici ESB/2012/27 koje utječu na uvjete sustava TARGET2-ECB trebaju se odraziti u Odluci ESB/2007/7 Europske središnje banke (3).

                     (4)

                     Odluku ESB/2007/7 potrebno je stoga na odgovarajući način izmijeniti,

                           „Article 22
                           Security Requirements and Control Procedures

                              1.   Participants shall implement adequate security controls to protect their systems from unauthorised access and use. Participants shall be exclusively responsible for the adequate protection of the confidentiality, integrity and availability of their systems.

                              2.   Participants shall inform the ECB of any security-related incidents in their technical infrastructure and, where appropriate, security-related incidents that occur in the technical infrastructure of the third party providers. The ECB may request further information about the incident and, if necessary, request that the participant take appropriate measures to prevent a recurrence of such an event.

                              3.   The ECB may impose additional security requirements, in particular with regard to cybersecurity or the prevention of fraud, on all participants and/or on participants that are considered critical by the ECB.

                              4.   Participants shall provide the ECB with: (i) permanent access to their attestation of adherence to their chosen network service provider’s endpoint security requirements, and (ii) on an annual basis the TARGET2 self-certification statement as published on the ECB’s website in English.

                              4a.   The ECB shall assess the participant’s self-certification statement(s) on the participants level of compliance with each of the requirements set out in the TARGET2 self-certification requirements. These requirements are listed in Appendix VII, which in addition to the other Appendices listed in Article 2(1), shall form an integral part of these Conditions.

                              4b.   The participant’s level of compliance with the requirements of the TARGET2 self-certification shall be categorised as follows, in increasing order of severity: ‘full compliance’; ‘minor non-compliance’; or ‘major non-compliance’. The following criteria apply: full compliance is reached where participants satisfy 100% of the requirements; minor non-compliance is where a participant satisfies less than 100% but at least 66% of the requirements and major non-compliance where a participant satisfies less than 66% of the requirements. If a participant demonstrates that a specific requirement is not applicable to it, it shall be considered as compliant with the respective requirement for the purposes of the categorisation. A participant which fails to reach ‘full compliance’ shall submit an action plan demonstrating how it intends to reach full compliance. The ECB shall inform the relevant supervisory authorities of the status of such participant’s compliance.

                              4c.   If the participant refuses to grant permanent access to its attestation of adherence to their chosen NSPs endpoint security requirements or does not provide the TARGET2 self-certification the participant’s level of compliance shall be categorised as ‘major non-compliance'.

                              4d.   The ECB shall reassess compliance of participants on an annual basis.

                              4e.   The ECB may impose the following measures of redress on participants whose level of compliance was assessed as minor or major non-compliance, in increasing order of severity:

                                          (i)

                                          enhanced monitoring: the participant shall provide the ECB with a monthly report, signed by a senior executive, on their progress in addressing the non-compliance. The participant shall additionally incur a monthly penalty charge for each affected account equal to its monthly fee as set out in paragraph 1 of Appendix VI excluding the transaction fees. This measure of redress may be imposed in the event the participant receives a second consecutive assessment of minor non-compliance or an assessment of major non-compliance;

                                          (ii)

                                          suspension: participation in TARGET2-ECB may be suspended in the circumstances described in Article 28(2)(b) and (c) of this Annex. By way of derogation from Article 28 of this Annex, the participant shall be given three months’ notice of such suspension. The participant shall incur a monthly penalty charge for each suspended account of double its monthly fee as set out in paragraph 1 of Appendix VI, excluding the transaction fees. This measure of redress may be imposed in the event the participant receives a second consecutive assessment of major non-compliance;

                                          (iii)

                                          termination: participation in TARGET2-ECB may be terminated in the circumstances described in Article 28(2)(b) and (c) of this Annex. By way of derogation from Article 28 of this Annex, the participant shall be given three months’ notice of such termination. The participant shall incur an additional penalty charge of EUR 1000 for each terminated account. This measure of redress may be imposed if the participant has not addressed the major non-compliance to the satisfaction of the ECB following three months of suspension.“;

They shall be deemed to be aware of, and shall comply with all obligations on them relating to legislation on prevention of money laundering and the financing of terrorism, proliferation-sensitive nuclear activities and the development of nuclear weapons delivery systems, in particular in terms of implementing appropriate measures concerning any payments debited or credited on their PM accounts.

                        Dodaje se sljedeći Dodatak VII.:

                              „Appendix VII
                              Requirements regarding information security management and business continuity management

                                 Information security management

                              These requirements are applicable to each participant, unless the participant demonstrates that a specific requirement is not applicable to it. In establishing the scope of application of the requirements within its infrastructure, the participant should identify the elements that are part of the Payment Transaction Chain (PTC). Specifically, the PTC starts at a Point of Entry (PoE), i.e. a system involved in the creation of transactions (e.g. workstations, front-office and back-office applications, middleware), and ends at the system responsible to send the message to SWIFT (e.g. SWIFT VPN Box) or Internet (with the latter applicable to Internet-based Access).

                                 Requirement 1.1: Information security policy
                              The management shall set a clear policy direction in line with business objectives and demonstrate support for and commitment to information security through the issuance, approval and maintenance of an information security policy aiming at managing information security and cyber resilience across the organisation in terms of identification, assessment and treatment of information security and cyber resilience risks. The policy should contain at least the following sections: objectives, scope (including domains such as organisation, human resources, asset management etc.), principles and allocation of responsibilities.

                                 Requirement 1.2: Internal organisation
                              An information security framework shall be established to implement the information security policy within the organisation. The management shall coordinate and review the establishment of the information security framework to ensure the implementation of the information security policy (as per Requirement 1.1) across the organisation, including the allocation of sufficient resources and assignment of security responsibilities for this purpose.

                                 Requirement 1.3: External parties
                              The security of the organisation’s information and information processing facilities should not be reduced by the introduction of, and/or the dependence on, an external party/parties or products/services provided by them. Any access to the organisation’s information processing facilities by external parties shall be controlled. When external parties or products/services of external parties are required to access the organisation’s information processing facilities, a risk assessment shall be carried out to determine the security implications and control requirements. Controls shall be agreed and defined in an agreement with each relevant external party.

                                 Requirement 1.4: Asset management
                              All information assets, the business processes and the underlying information systems, such as operating systems, infrastructures, business applications, off-the-shelf products, services and user-developed applications, in the scope of the Payment Transaction Chain shall be accounted for and have a nominated owner. The responsibility for the maintenance and the operation of appropriate controls in the business processes and the related IT components to safeguard the information assets shall be assigned. Note: the owner can delegate the implementation of specific controls as appropriate, but remains accountable for the proper protection of the assets.

                                 Requirement 1.5: Information assets classification
                              Information assets shall be classified in terms of their criticality to the smooth delivery of the service by the participant. The classification shall indicate the need, priorities and degree of protection required when handling the information asset in the relevant business processes and shall also take into consideration the underlying IT components. An information asset classification scheme approved by the management shall be used to define an appropriate set of protection controls throughout the information asset lifecycle (including removal and destruction of information assets) and to communicate the need for specific handling measures.

                                 Requirement 1.6: Human resources security
                              Security responsibilities shall be addressed prior to employment in adequate job descriptions and in terms and conditions of employment. All candidates for employment, contractors and third party users shall be adequately screened, especially for sensitive jobs. Employees, contractors and third party users of information processing facilities shall sign an agreement on their security roles and responsibilities. An adequate level of awareness shall be ensured among all employees, contractors and third party users, and education and training in security procedures and the correct use of information processing facilities shall be provided to them to minimise possible security risks. A formal disciplinary process for handling security breaches shall be established for employees. Responsibilities shall be in place to ensure that an employee’s, contractor’s or third party user’s exit from or transfer within the organisation is managed, and that the return of all equipment and the removal of all access rights are completed.

                                 Requirement 1.7: Physical and environmental security
                              Critical or sensitive information processing facilities shall be housed in secure areas, protected by defined security perimeters, with appropriate security barriers and entry controls. They shall be physically protected from unauthorised access, damage and interference. Access shall be granted only to individuals who fall within the scope of Requirement 1.6. Procedures and standards shall be established to protect physical media containing information assets when in transit.
                              Equipment shall be protected from physical and environmental threats. Protection of equipment (including equipment used off-site) and against the removal of property is necessary to reduce the risk of unauthorised access to information and to guard against loss or damage of equipment or information. Special measures may be required to protect against physical threats and to safeguard supporting facilities such as the electrical supply and cabling infrastructure.

                                 Requirement 1.8: Operations management
                              Responsibilities and procedures shall be established for the management and operation of information processing facilities covering all the underlying systems in the Payment Transaction Chain end-to-end.
                              As regards operating procedures, including technical administration of IT systems, segregation of duties shall be implemented, where appropriate, to reduce the risk of negligent or deliberate system misuse. Where segregation of duties cannot be implemented due to documented objective reasons, compensatory controls shall be implemented following a formal risk analysis. Controls shall be established to prevent and detect the introduction of malicious code for systems in the Payment Transaction Chain. Controls shall be also established (including user awareness) to prevent, detect and remove malicious code. Mobile code shall be used only from trusted sources (e.g. signed Microsoft COM components and Java Applets). The configuration of the browser (e.g. the use of extensions and plugins) shall be strictly controlled.
                              Data backup and recovery policies shall be implemented by the management; those recovery policies shall include a plan of the restoration process which is tested at regular intervals at least annually.
                              Systems that are critical for the security of payments shall be monitored and events relevant to information security shall be recorded. Operator logs shall be used to ensure that information system problems are identified. Operator logs shall be regularly reviewed on a sample basis, based on the criticality of the operations. System monitoring shall be used to check the effectiveness of controls which are identified as critical for the security of payments and to verify conformity to an access policy model.
                              Exchanges of information between organisations shall be based on a formal exchange policy, carried out in line with exchange agreements among the involved parties and shall be compliant with any relevant legislation. Third party software components employed in the exchange of information with TARGET2 (like software received from a Service Bureau in scenario 2 of the scope section of the TARGET2 self-certification arrangement document) must be used under a formal agreement with the third party.

                                 Requirement 1.9: Access control
                              Access to information assets shall be justified on the basis of business requirements (need-to-know (1)) and according to the established framework of corporate policies (including the information security policy). Clear access control rules shall be defined based on the principle of least privilege (2) to reflect closely the needs of the corresponding business and IT processes. Where relevant (e.g. for backup management) logical access control should be consistent with physical access control unless there are adequate compensatory controls in place (e.g. encryption, personal data anonymisation).
                              Formal and documented procedures shall be in place to control the allocation of access rights to information systems and services that fall within the scope of the Payment Transaction Chain. The procedures shall cover all stages in the lifecycle of user access, from the initial registration of new users to the final deregistration of users that no longer require access.
                              Special attention shall be given, where appropriate, to the allocation of access rights of such criticality that the abuse of those access rights could lead to a severe adverse impact on the operations of the participant (e.g. access rights allowing system administration, override of system controls, direct access to business data).
                              Appropriate controls shall be put in place to identify, authenticate and authorise users at specific points in the organisation’s network, e.g. for local and remote access to systems in the Payment Transaction Chain. Personal accounts shall not be shared in order to ensure accountability.
                              For passwords, rules shall be established and enforced by specific controls to ensure that passwords cannot be easily guessed, e.g. complexity rules and limited-time validity. A safe password recovery and/or reset protocol shall be established.
                              A policy shall be developed and implemented on the use of cryptographic controls to protect the confidentiality, authenticity and integrity of information. A key management policy shall be established to support the use of cryptographic controls.
                              There shall be policy for viewing confidential information on screen or in print (e.g. a clear screen, a clear desk policy) to reduce the risk of unauthorised access.
                              When working remotely, the risks of working in an unprotected environment shall be considered and appropriate technical and organisational controls shall be applied.

                                 Requirement 1.10: Information systems acquisition, development and maintenance
                              Security requirements shall be identified and agreed prior to the development and/or implementation of information systems.
                              Appropriate controls shall be built into applications, including user-developed applications, to ensure correct processing. These controls shall include the validation of input data, internal processing and output data. Additional controls may be required for systems that process, or have an impact on, sensitive, valuable or critical information. Such controls shall be determined on the basis of security requirements and risk assessment according to the established policies (e.g. information security policy, cryptographic control policy).
                              The operational requirements of new systems shall be established, documented and tested prior to their acceptance and use. As regards network security, appropriate controls, including segmentation and secure management, should be implemented based on the criticality of data flows and the level of risk of the network zones in the organisation. There shall be specific controls to protect sensitive information passing over public networks.
                              Access to system files and program source code shall be controlled and IT projects and support activities conducted in a secure manner. Care shall be taken to avoid exposure of sensitive data in test environments. Project and support environments shall be strictly controlled. Deployment of changes in production shall be strictly controlled. A risk assessment of the major changes to be deployed in production shall be conducted.
                              Regular security testing activities of systems in production shall also be conducted according to a predefined plan based on the outcome of a risk assessment, and security testing shall include, at least, vulnerability assessments. All of the shortcomings highlighted during the security testing activities shall be assessed and action plans to close any identified gap shall be prepared and followed up in a timely fashion.

                                 Requirement 1.11: Information security in supplier (3) relationships
                              To ensure protection of the participant’s internal information systems that are accessible by suppliers, information security requirements for mitigating the risks associated with supplier’s access shall be documented and formally agreed upon with the supplier.

                                 Requirement 1.12: Management of information security incidents and improvements
                              To ensure a consistent and effective approach to the management of information security incidents, including communication on security events and weaknesses, roles, responsibilities and procedures, at business and technical level, shall be established and tested to ensure a quick, effective and orderly and safely recover from information security incidents including scenarios related to a cyber-related cause (e.g. a fraud pursued by an external attacker or by an insider). Personnel involved in these procedures shall be adequately trained.

                                 Requirement 1.13: Technical compliance review
                              A participant’s internal information systems (e.g. back office systems, internal networks and external network connectivity) shall be regularly assessed for compliance with the organisation’s established framework of policies (e.g. information security policy, cryptographic control policy).

                                 Requirement 1.14: Virtualisation
                              Guest virtual machines shall comply with all the security controls that are set for physical hardware and systems (e.g. hardening, logging). Controls relating to hypervisors must include: hardening of the hypervisor and the hosting operating system, regular patching, strict separation of different environments (e.g. production and development). Centralised management, logging and monitoring as well as managing of access rights, in particular for high privileged accounts, shall be implemented based on a risk assessment. Guest virtual machines managed by the same hypervisor shall have a similar risk profile.

                                 Requirement 1.15: Cloud computing
                              The usage of public and/or hybrid cloud solutions in the Payment Transaction Chain must be based on a formal risk assessment, taking into account the technical controls and the contractual clauses related to the cloud solution.
                              If hybrid cloud solutions are used, it is understood that the criticality level of the overall system is the highest one of the connected systems. All on-premises components of the hybrid solutions must be segregated from the other on-premises systems.

                                 Business continuity management (applicable only to critical participants)

                              The following requirements (2.1 to 2.6) relate to business continuity management. Each TARGET2 participant classified by the Eurosystem as being critical for the smooth functioning of the TARGET2 system shall have a business continuity strategy in place comprising the following elements.

                                             Requirement 2.1

                                          :

                                          Business continuity plans shall be developed and procedures for maintaining them are in place.

                                             Requirement 2.2

                                          :

                                          An alternate operational site shall be available.

                                             Requirement 2.3

                                          :

                                          The risk profile of the alternate site shall be different from that of the primary site, in order to avoid that both sites are affected by the same event at the same time. For example, the alternate site shall be on a different power grid and central telecommunication circuit from those of the primary business location.

                                             Requirement 2.4

                                          :

                                          In the event of a major operational disruption rendering the primary site inaccessible and/or critical staff unavailable, the critical participant shall be able to resume normal operations from the alternate site, where it shall be possible to properly close the business day and open the following business day(s).

                                             Requirement 2.5

                                          :

                                          Procedures shall be in place to ensure that the processing of transactions is resumed from the alternate site within a reasonable timeframe after the initial disruption of service and commensurate to the criticality of the business that was disrupted.

                                             Requirement 2.6

                                          :

                                          The ability to cope with operational disruptions shall be tested at least once a year and critical staff shall be appropriately trained. The maximum period between tests shall not exceed one year.
