Our Story
When it comes to governance and cybersecurity, the financial sector is constantly evolving, striving for stability and prioritizing security. Financial institutions face an array of challenges when it comes to compliance management and user access reviews, ranging from the complexities of banking software to the growing demands of regulatory compliance.
Our co-founder, Scott McIlrath, began his tenure as an IT leader at a bank working through two core conversions. As if that weren’t enough, he also had to deal with his first regulatory exam just a few months into the job. One of Scott’s strengths is his ability to put a process in place when challenges arise, so at his bank, he initiated a process to make sure they were always ready for exams.
Scott’s talent and dedication to simplify the way information security is governed in banking was a major catalyst for the creation of Finosec. Our leadership understands the pressing need for streamlined and validated solutions to create efficient cybersecurity management in this intricate and complicated environment, and we are passionate about helping financial institutions meet these multifaceted challenges.
Our Mission
To empower financial institutions with the best tools, resources and expertise to achieve their governance goals.
We want to help you automate those critical, yet labor-intensive tasks essential for secure banking systems, from systems access rights management to successful IT audits and FFIEC IT Exams.
Our Vision
To create a world for financial institutions where cybersecurity is streamlined and simple.
We believe that governance should not be a burden, but an opportunity for you to improve your security posture, compliance status and business performance.
Our Purpose
Our company’s purpose statement ends with LOVE, SERVE, GIVE. We believe that if we LOVE our employees unlike any other, that LOVE will flow into the way we SERVE our customers, and because of that we will be able to GIVE back in exceptional ways.
