Amman, July 13 (Petra) – The Central Bank of Jordan (CBJ) achieved a
major global cybersecurity milestone after its innovative regional
cyber-threat intelligence sharing platform was named among the top
five projects worldwide at the World Summit on the Information
Society (WSIS) Forum 2026.
The platform, developed by the CBJ’s Cyber Incident Response Unit for
the Financial and Banking Sector, was recognized in the international
and regional cooperation category. It enables Arab central banks and
monetary authorities to exchange and analyze cyber-threat data in
real time, shifting regional cyber defense from isolated reactive
measures to a collective, proactive deterrent system to safeguard
financial stability.
The CBJ stated on Monday that the international honor reflects the
maturity of its regulatory and technical framework and its ability to
scale local security solutions into cross-border digital governance
models.
The UN-backed recognition reflects the effectiveness of the CBJ’s
strategy for data governance, cyber risk management, and digital
resilience, as well as its continued investment in national talent
and advanced technology, according to the CBJ.
It added that the achievement reinforces international confidence in
the resilience and reliability of Jordan’s financial system.
Looking ahead, the bank described the accolade as a stepping stone to
further drive digital innovation, expand strategic partnerships, and
solidify the Kingdom’s position as a regional hub for sustainable
financial cybersecurity.
