SecureIT understands these industry-specific requirements and has developed specific solutions to help our financial services clients navigate these waters.

• FFIEC Compliance: The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) is a formal interagency body empowered to prescribe uniform principles, standards, and report forms for the federal examination of financial institutions by their regulating bodies. The FFIEC issues standards for operating financial institutions, including for the use of information technology. SecureIT understands these standards, and work with financial institutions to ensure that appropriate controls have been put into place, and that compliance can be effectively demonstrated to regulators and other examination entities.
• Regulatory Compliance: Companies in the Financial Services industry have to comply with a number of regulations such as GLBA or California Security Breach Information Act (SB 1386) to ensure that they are providing increased protection to customer information. SecureIT helps organizations address current and applicable regulatory requirements, and develop processes and procedures that address future mandates more effectively. We also implement processes and systems to monitor and report on compliance initiatives and current compliance status.
• Controls Framework: SecureIT helps its financial services clients navigate the complex array of industry frameworks such as ITIL, COBIT, and ISO to identify the most appropriate standard(s) for their organizations. We combine this with the regulatory requirements and internal standards and develop a plan to assess the current state of systems and policies, compare them to a desired future state, and provide a comprehensive gap analysis.
• Audit Readiness & Liaison: We act as facilitators, interpreters, and liaisons between our clients, their auditors and their regulating authorities. We simplify the process of compliance and at the same time, create greater efficiencies and minimize disruptions. As a result, we eliminate distraction, confusion, and stress amongst key IT personnel.
