Cyber Alert: The Fundamentals of Cyber Hygiene for Financial Institutions

The Texas Department of Banking shares the Conference of State Bank Supervisors' Cyber Hygiene Fundamentals for Financial Institutions Guide, which consolidates ten previously distributed fact sheets and board question documents into a single resource. This publication does not introduce new regulatory requirements but amplifies key controls from existing guidance to encourage increased oversight by senior management and Boards of Directors. It highlights six critical threats—ransomware, denial-of-service attacks, third-party risks, geopolitical and hacktivist activities, social engineering and phishing, and corporate account takeover—and recommends that CEOs share this information with CISOs and IT security personnel.
