Objective
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. The level of cybersecurity inherent risk varies significantly across financial institutions. It is important for management to understand the financial institution’s inherent risk to cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities when assessing cybersecurity preparedness.
The areas of cyber importance include Risk Management and Oversight, Threat Intelligence and Collaboration, Cybersecurity Controls, External Dependency Management, and Cyber Incident Management and Resilience. The FFIEC Cybersecurity training ensures personnel has the necessary knowledge and skills to support security awareness and strengthen compliance. Also, management's behavior and priorities heavily influence employee awareness and policy compliance, so training and the commitment to security should start with management.
In this course, you will be asked to read through lessons, participate in learning activities, and partake in knowledge checks designed to reinforce learning, followed by the end of the course final assessment.
