Frequently Asked Questions
What cybersecurity frameworks are most relevant for financial services?
Financial institutions typically need alignment with NIST CSF for enterprise risk management, SOC 2 for demonstrating security controls to customers, and PCI DSS if processing payment card data. State regulations like NYDFS 23 NYCRR 500 may also apply.
How do you handle sensitive financial data during assessments?
We follow strict data handling protocols, including NDAs, encrypted communications, and read-only access to systems. We never access or store customer financial data during assessments.
Can you help with third-party risk management?
Yes. We assess vendor security programs, review SOC 2 reports, and help establish third-party risk management frameworks aligned to your regulatory requirements.
