Supporting Technology and Cyber Risk Management for Federally Regulated Financial Institutions How Cyera maps to OSFI’s Guideline B-13

OSFI’s Guideline B-13 reflects rising regulatory expectations around technology and cyber risk as financial institutions become more digital, interconnected, and data-driven. FRFIs are expected to demonstrate strong governance, resilient technology operations, and effective cyber security controls that protect critical systems and sensitive data. The challenge is no longer just having controls in place, but showing that institutions understand their technology assets, data exposures, and ability to prevent, detect, and recover from cyber events.

This brief explores how: 

• Data visibility underpins B-13 compliance: Accurate, continuous insight into where sensitive data lives and how it’s accessed is essential across governance, operations, and cyber security domains.
• Resilience depends on knowing what’s critical: Asset inventories, data classification, and recovery prioritization are foundational to effective incident response and disaster recovery.
• Cyber risk must be measurable and actionable: B-13 emphasizes risk-based metrics, continuous monitoring, and evidence that security controls and response processes actually work.
