Background
On August 30, 2021, the 多宝游戏下载鈥檚 Tech Lab, FDITECH, launched 鈥 From Hurricanes to Ransomware: Measuring Resilience in the Banking World. 鈥 This sprint challenged participants to identify solutions for institutions of all sizes to measure and to test their resilience to major disruptions. An evaluation panel consisted of representatives from the 多宝游戏下载, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Department of Homeland Security Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The panel reviewed team submissions under the following criteria:
- Creativity: How new or different was the Team鈥檚 approach and to what degree did the approach introduce a potential paradigm shift in how financial institutions measure and test their resilience? In addition, did the approach present an innovative way of encouraging small-to-midsize financial institutions to play a more active role in their resilience?
- Effectiveness/Impact: To what degree did the approach have the potential to lead to a universal set of measures with a testing mechanism that may be used by all banks while protecting proprietary data, including consumer data, and critical systems and operations? In addition, how did the approach add value for a variety of stakeholders, particularly small to midsize financial institutions?
- Market Readiness: How long would it take, and what are the costs to bring the approach to market and to have users adopt the solution?
The 多宝游戏下载 did not offer monetary prizes associated with this sprint.
