In today’s ransomware-prevalent world, adopting a robust cyber resilience strategy is critical to any financial institution’s survival. Cyber threats are unpredictable, ever-changing, and evolving, including political motivations, sometimes by highly sophisticated state actors. It is no longer a question of if, but when, an institution will face a crippling cyber incident and those who triumph will be the ones that have proactively planned to survive. Sheltered Harbor helps companies prepare to survive a crisis, like a major technology disruption caused by a cyber incident. Even if all critical systems, including backups fail, the company can restore critical business services. This helps maintain customer confidence and buys the company time to restore normal operations. Founded in 2015, Sheltered Harbor is the leading financial services industry-driven and funded not-for-profit “standard setting and certification” organization, dedicated to enhancing resilience in the global financial system. It is an independent subsidiary of the Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Center (“FS-ISAC”).
