Your Examiner Will Find the Gaps. The Question Is Whether You Find Them First.
Financial institutions that assess before examiners arrive spend less time remediating and more time demonstrating a mature security program.
Built for Regulated Financial Institutions
ABT has assessed hundreds of Microsoft 365 environments across regulated financial institutions. The assessment is calibrated for the questions examiners actually ask.
Credit Unions
NCUA examiners evaluate your cybersecurity maturity. A Guardian assessment gives you documentation before they arrive.
Community Banks
FDIC and OCC examinations require evidence of continuous security monitoring. Start with a baseline assessment.
Mortgage Companies
State regulators and investors require security attestations. An assessment shows exactly where your gaps are.
