FFIEC. GLBA. BSA/AML. Heightened standards. One program.
Banks run under a stack of regulators — OCC, FDIC, FRB, NCUA, and state DFS — each with its own examination calendar and its own view of the same control library. Talarity runs FFIEC IT, GLBA Safeguards, BSA/AML, FFIEC CAT, and third-party risk in one continuous program.
Sound familiar?
Every prudential examiner uses the FFIEC IT Handbook — but you're running it as a project, not a program.
Service-provider risk (OCC's interagency third-party guidance) is a different framework from the rest of your GRC stack.
Examiners want FFIEC CAT scoring; your board wants NIST CSF — same evidence, two formats, two refreshes.
BSA/AML controls live in a different system from everything else, but examiners ask about them in the same conversation.
FFIEC's 36-hour incident notification rule isn't wired to your existing IR workflow.
An examination cycle isn't a project. It's a way of operating.
Banks don't run between exams — they run through them. The FFIEC IT Handbook is the lingua franca: the same book the OCC examiner brings to your bank as the FDIC examiner brings to the bank across town. Layered on top is GLBA Safeguards, the FFIEC CAT maturity model, BSA/AML controls in their own world, heightened standards for the largest banks, the interagency third-party risk guidance, and the FFIEC's 36-hour incident notification rule. Each one is testing controls that share most of their surface area.
Most banks ran SOX or SOC 2 first, then bolted everything else on. The result: FFIEC controls in one tool, AML in another, third-party risk in a third, and a binder marked 'examination prep' that gets rebuilt every two years. Examiners notice. They don't say so on the way out, but the MRA letters tell you what they thought.
Talarity runs every framework off the same control library. FFIEC IT mapped to NIST CSF mapped to your SOC 2. Service-provider reviews on the same timeline as your own controls. BSA/AML controls visible in the same dashboard. The 36-hour notification clock answered from the incident program you already run — not a separate workflow standing up next to it.
The capabilities, in your context.
Governance, Risk & Compliance
Compliance
Run FFIEC IT, FFIEC CAT, NIST CSF, GLBA, and SOC 2 in parallel with cross-mapping — same evidence packaged for prudential examiners, customers, and the board.
Explore ComplianceGovernance
Map FFIEC IT, GLBA Safeguards, BSA/AML, and heightened-standards control sets into a single library — answer once, examine many ways.
Explore GovernanceRisk
FAIR-quantified risk in the dollar terms heightened-standards reviews now expect — and a defensible methodology when an examiner asks how the number was built.
Explore RiskAdd-on modules
Attach to GRC Professional or Enterprise Governance — same flat price on either.
Third-Party Risk Management
Service-provider risk on the same timeline as the rest of the program — OCC interagency guidance, BCP/DR posture, and concentration risk in one view.
AI Insights
Tally helps draft the quarterly board and risk-committee narrative and pre-fills examination responses from prior evidence — every claim traced back to the source record.

Practitioner walkthroughs from the Talarity library.
- Compliance·9 min readSave a security package once, send it on demandA prospect's security team asks for your SOC 2, your pen test, and your current security policies — again. Package Templates save that set as a reusable definition of pinned items plus rules like 'every current SOC 2 report', resolve it fresh each time you send, and hand it over as a redacted, watermarked, time-limited copy with a record of who received what.
- Compliance·6 min readSystem Configuration — turn a completed assessment into enforceable, drift-tracked baselinesEvery safeguard you scored in an assessment becomes an enforceable expected value. Talarity re-checks the observed state, flags drift, opens remediation automatically, and lets you attach evidence per control — so your controls stay implemented, not just documented once.
- Governance·6 min readExport and verify your audit trail for SOC 2Pull your full audit trail as a SOC 2 evidence file in any format, then prove it wasn't altered with a one-click tamper-evidence check — backed by a per-row hash chain and a Merkle root your auditor can re-verify offline.
- Governance·6 min readCatch toxic access combinations with Segregation of DutiesDefine the pairs of duties no single person should hold — approve and disburse, accept a risk and own its control — and Talarity flags every user who holds both, with ten framework-mapped starter rules out of the box.
