# FSISEC12: How are you meeting your obligations for incident reporting to regulators?
<a name="fsisec12"></a>

 Various regulations require that the banking organizations and managed service providers notify the regulators as soon as a cyber security incident has been discovered, such as the [Final Issuances](https://www.occ.treas.gov/topics/laws-and-regulations/occ-regulations/final-issuances/index-final-issuances.html) published by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), Security and Exchanges Commision (SEC) [Cybersecurity Disclosure](https://www.sec.gov/news/statement/gerding-cybersecurity-disclosure-20231214) or the Network and Information Systems (NIS) regulation. Incident reporting now includes AI-specific events such as harmful model responses or unauthorized model access, model manipulation and poisoning attacks. 

## FSISEC12-BP01 Regularly review your incident response plan for regulatory compliance

 Organizations that are operating in multiple Regions need to be aware the [regulatory requirements](https://aws.amazon.com/financial-services/security-compliance/compliance-center/) of the regions they are operating in and any local data residency requirements (such as [GDPR](https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/gdpr-center/)). With local data residency requirements, you cannot copy the data to a different Region for analysis purposes. In this case, you may need to consider the latency aspects if you have a global team that needs to access and analyze data from a different Region. Consider setting up a local incident response team that can act on the incident in a timely manner and report to local regulators as necessary. 

 As mentioned before, as part of your incident response plan, you should [develop playbooks](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/automation-documents.html) to standardize response process for cybersecurity incidents. With the ever-changing regulatory requirements of the financial industry and the dynamic nature of cloud environments, it is important to establish a process that reviews the playbooks in use to perform incident or recovery communications as required. 

### Prescriptive guidance

+  Create your own playbooks to facilitate responses during cybersecurity incidents. Refer to [building incident response playbooks for AWS](https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-incident-response-playbooks-workshop) for sample playbooks. 
+  Use [AWS Compliance Center](https://aws.amazon.com/financial-services/security-compliance/compliance-center/?country-compliance-center-cards.sort-by=item.additionalFields.headline&country-compliance-center-cards.sort-order=asc&awsf.country-compliance-center-master-filter=%2Aall) for information on regulatory responsibilities that can be related to incident responses. 
+  For AI systems: 
  +  Include AI-specific incidents in response procedures. 
  +  Develop playbooks for model misuse. 
  +  Establish reporting procedures for AI incidents. 
  +  Include AI events in regulatory reporting requirements.
