CrowdStrike Falcon® and FFIEC Compliance

The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) provides a framework that defines baseline technical, physical, and operational security controls necessary for protecting customer financial information. This report, produced by leading compliance assessor Coalfire, outlines how CrowdStrike Falcon® can assist organizations in their compliance efforts with respect to the 2016 FFIEC IT Examiner’s Handbook for Information Security.

In summary the report shows:

• CrowdStrike Falcon® capabilities in detection and responding to threats, and associated collection of endpoint activities data, make it a suitable solution for addressing system protection and monitoring controls required for FFIEC compliance.
• CrowdStrike’s Falcon provides support for achieving five FFIEC objectives, addressing 17 controls within those objectives.
