Webinar: FFIEC Guidance on Cloud Computing: Considerations for Credit Unions

Tuesday, May 21, 2013

Speaker: Jeramie Stoner, Advanced Network Solutions

About the Program

From a technology and cost standpoint, cloud computing can be a very attractive option for credit unions. Unfortunately, assessing the risks and security of a cloud-based solution can be difficult and time consuming. However, this should not deter exploring these options, because the cloud-provider systems could be preferable to an in-house solution. This session will explore the security concerns credit unions need to consider when evaluating cloud solutions and how to assess them.
