9 Common GLBA Examination Findings Findings Partial inventories Incomplete risk assessments Weak Board reporting Limited ongoing training Lack of monitoring of suspicious activity for all customer information systems Incomplete incident response plans Weak oversight on service providers / vendors Limited validation

10 Inventory Identifying the data –Where is the data? Network, Servicer, Back-up, Physical –Who can access the data? Employees, Vendors, Consultants, Programmers –How can the data be accessed? Intranet, Internet, Database, Application

11 Risk Assessment How is the data threatened? –Internal and External; New and Old Threats How is the data protected? –Encryption, Access Control, Security Configurations How is the data monitored? –When, How Often, Independently How is the data disposed of? –Shredded, Electronically Destroyed --- –FACTA (FIL-130-2004)

12 Risk Assessment Conclusions Are you mitigating all threats? Would breaches be caught? Are changes detectable? Are you doing enough?

13 Board Reporting Report to the Board. Each bank shall report to its board or an appropriate committee of the board at least annually. This report should describe the overall status of the information security program and the bank's compliance with these Guidelines. The report, which will vary depending upon the complexity of each bank's program should discuss material matters related to its program, addressing issues such as: risk assessment; risk management and control decisions; service provider arrangements; results of testing; security breaches or violations, and management's responses; and recommendations for changes in the information security program.

14 Training Determine the frequency –Most companies perform annually –All new employees “One Size Doesn’t Fit All” Combine with other training

15 Monitoring Need to determine what needs monitoring Alert triggers should be established Should be done by independent person Should be automated

16 Incident Reponses Need a definitive program Should address responses for any/all anticipated incidents Should consider walk-throughs and/or preparatory activities FIL-27-2005

17 Service Providers and Vendors It is your responsibility to ensure that your Service Providers and Vendors adhere to GLBA All GLBA procedures should be conducted for all Service Providers and Vendors that have access or can gain access to Non-Public Customer Data Just having a Contract Clause is NOT enough FIL 81-2000

18 Validation Vital part Needs to be done independently of the controls Frequency and Scope should be determined by your Risk Assessment
