Problem

Managing FFIEC compliance with legacy tools leaves banks & credit unions at risk

The FFIEC IT Examination Handbook expects institutions to maintain an active information security risk management program—not just conduct annual checklists. Financial institutions must run continuous risk assessments aligned to frameworks like NIST CSF or the CRI Profile, maintain a living risk register, inventory all information assets and third-party relationships, and regularly reassess internal applications.

As the FFIEC Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) sunsets, institutions relying on spreadsheets, static surveys, and siloed reports struggle to keep pace. Without a centralized way to track risks, assets, vendors, and controls, it becomes harder to satisfy examiner expectations, demonstrate cybersecurity maturity, and manage evolving threats.

What is FFIEC compliance software?

FFIEC compliance software helps financial institutions align with guidance from the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC). These platforms streamline how institutions manage risk assessments, organize inventories of assets and vendors, and monitor their overall information security programs. By centralizing data and automating key workflows, FFIEC compliance software supports institutions in meeting examiner expectations, tracking compliance postures, and demonstrating cybersecurity maturity levels during federal financial institutions examinations.

What does FFIEC compliance require from financial institutions?

FFIEC compliance requires institutions to implement and maintain sound practices for risk management, information security, third-party oversight, and business continuity. While the FFIEC does not mandate a specific set of security controls, it provides detailed guidelines through the FFIEC IT Examination Handbook. Institutions are expected to conduct ongoing risk assessments, document controls, respond to cyber threats, and demonstrate consistent improvements in their compliance postures.

Does the FFIEC prescribe specific cybersecurity controls?

No, the FFIEC does not prescribe a proprietary set of cybersecurity controls. Instead, it encourages financial institutions to align with industry-recognized frameworks such as the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) and the Financial Services Sector Cybersecurity Profile (CRI Profile). These models help institutions assess their maturity level across domains like threat intelligence, incident response, and third-party risk management—key areas of focus during an FFIEC examination.

How does Isora GRC help with FFIEC risk assessments?

Isora GRC enables structured, repeatable risk assessments aligned with FFIEC expectations. Institutions can organize assessments by business unit, vendor, or compliance area, track completion in real time, and apply scoring logic to evaluate risk exposure. With centralized oversight and built-in reminders, your team gains full visibility into risk management activities—making it easier to prepare for examiner reviews and improve your information security posture over time.

Can Isora GRC support maturity model alignment (e.g., CRI Profile)?

Yes. Isora GRC supports alignment with maturity models like the CRI Profile by enabling custom scoring, assessment grouping, and detailed reporting. Security teams can map questionnaire responses to control objectives, track scoring trends over time, and generate visual scorecards to reflect organizational maturity. These insights help demonstrate progress toward FFIEC compliance and inform strategic decisions about where to invest in security improvements.

How does Isora GRC support vendor and third-party risk management?

Isora GRC provides a complete vendor inventory system with targeted questionnaire delivery, response scoring, and deployment tracking. Institutions can assess technology services used by third-party providers, evaluate their security practices, and monitor risk over time. By linking vendor data to assessments and remediation plans, Isora helps financial institutions comply with FFIEC guidelines on supply chain oversight and ensure sensitive information remains protected.

What reports do FFIEC examiners expect during an audit?

FFIEC examiners typically look for documentation that demonstrates risk assessment processes, asset and vendor oversight, incident response readiness, and control implementation. Isora GRC simplifies this by generating audit-ready reports, scorecards, and risk summaries with full traceability. Institutions can export data in standard formats (PDF, CSV) and deliver evidence that supports maturity level evaluations and FFIEC guideline alignment.

How long does it take to implement Isora GRC for FFIEC compliance?

Most institutions can deploy Isora GRC quickly, thanks to its intuitive design and prebuilt templates. Teams can start running assessments, building inventories, and tracking risks in days—not months or years. Unlike traditional GRC systems, Isora is built for fast adoption and flexible workflows, making it easy to phase in capabilities without disrupting existing operations.
