FSTEC Order 60 Expands Attestation Rules to Municipal Systems, Defense Industry and Personal Data Operators

Russia's FSTEC Order No. 60, effective 1 September 2026, rewrites the list of entities subject to information system attestation under the updated Order No. 77. The changes reach far beyond state information systems to cover municipal information systems, industrial control systems at defense enterprises, protected premises for confidential talks, and any commercial personal data operators that voluntarily included attestation in their policies. New clauses introduce mandatory vulnerability analysis and penetration testing as explicit control methods, tighten reporting deadlines to five working days, and require FSTEC-licensed organizations with specific rights for testing. Parallel FSB Order No. 297 obliges every state institution, including schools and hospitals, to report incidents to NKTSKI within 24 hours via a personal cabinet established only after a formal interaction regulation is signed. Government Decree No. 1024 permits cloud services for state systems but keeps full compliance responsibility with the user organization. The combined rules take effect on 1 September 2026, with one provision delayed until March 2027.
