Credit Unions and Community Banks having difficulty meeting FFIEC requirements

SAN JOSE, Calif. - June 11, 2013 - PRLog -- San Jose, CA--Cyber criminals targeting financial institutions are becoming more sophisticated, organized, and often very well-funded. They now have more resources and time to develop and deploy various malwares to steal data and money. Cyber criminals are using malwares such as Zeus, SpyEye and Gozi, developed specifically to steal financial data, causing billions of dollars in loss worldwide.

The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC), a government agency that oversees regulations and standards among financial institutions, has released a Supplemental Guidance on Internet Banking to assist financial institutions, to create a safer internet banking environment. Financial institutions that do not follow these strict guidelines could face severe penalty as was the case in a number of recent court cases where banks were held responsible for all the financial damages occurring from internet banking frauds.

While larger financial institutions have solutions in place to meet compliance requirements, many credit unions and community banks are having difficulty implementing proper security solutions to comply with the FFIEC guidance and protect internet banking users from cyber threats. Most banks report lack of budget and proper infrastructure as the main reason for failing to have a solid security solution in place. Lack of resources and budget should not prevent financial institutions from providing their customers with secure internet banking environment.
