3 The business problem: The cloud lacks transparency and threatens performance through a diverse business model FINANCIAL INSTITUTION International Payments B to Bank Transactions CRM B to B Transactions Sales Management HR and Accounting Business Intelligence Financial Applications AML Outsourced Back Office Mash-ups SaaS Fraud Source: TowerGroup Data quality, latency, security, and compliance at risk; financial institutions lack controls, information insight, and process transparency 3
4 And it s not just external: Virtualization and the rise of the private cloud creates data risk inside and outside the firewall Savings Hardware Network Desktop Power savings Cooling savings Hardware savings License savings Space savings People savings Benefits Resource flexibility Backup, failover Free up resources Computing speed Just-in-time IT Monitor, react, adjust Software Storage Operating System 4
5 Meanwhile the range of business needs for real time insight of indisputable quality has grown dramatically Analytical (identify and solve a point problem, change/improve a function, accelerate a line of business) Historical (sorting tribal knowledge from tribal myth) Predictive (It s about the future, stupid) Compliance (Basel, Solvency, MiFiD) Risk (market, credit, operational) Customer/Market (CRM with profit) Operational (process improvement, reengineering, cost reduction) Performance (benchmarking and best practice measurement) Enterprise (corporate performance management) 5

Data segregation: Shared resources? Recoverability: DR/BCP? Audit: Transparency? Security: Human and IT elements? Compliance: Knowledgeable vendor?

14 Operational risk is central to cloud business models Security is viewed holistically, addressing technical, policy, and human aspects. Regulation is viewed from an existing and anticipatory perspective. Assurance refers to the continuous availability of the cloud services provided. Performance entails meeting speed and latency demands, which vary greatly among industry segments. Liability is the potential to be held legally responsible for errors, omissions, or wrongdoing that results in monetary damages beyond actual losses. Operational risk overarches the other categories of risk. All risk is ultimately operational Operational Risk Security Regulation Liability Assurance Performance Source: TowerGroup 14
15 Operational risks and internal concerns over cloud computing: FSIs ask key questions Issue Cloud providers have people involved in technology support Governance changes when cloud computing mixes with traditional development Intellectual capital is hard-won in financial services FSIs have sunk costs in IT The cloud threatens internal IT Disintermediation of IT resources Understanding the business is important for IT today Question What is your approach to making sure that the operations, which I no longer see, are sound and that I can trust not only the IT, but your company in general? How can I bring your cloud service under my IT governance model? Or, how do I change the model? What can you do to assure me that my IP will not be compromised or shared? How can I leverage the existing investment in IT along side your IT services? How do I avoid disintermediation of my IT architecture? How do I manage business units that decide to use the cloud outside of IT? Will cloud computing ultimately replace me? Rather than an add-on, doesn t cloud computing just cannibalize my current IT environment? What level of domain expertise do you have and how can that help me serve my business units? 15
16 Evaluating and managing risks in cloud computing Cloud Computing Issue Implications Potential Actions Private clouds overcome some of the angst over security But still a concern given that some business units, lines of business, and even functions (asset/liability management vs FX services vs payments processing) must have separation Track data authorization, data movement, delivery, and deliver enterprise reporting Impact of new cross-industry consumer protection regulations Expanded consumer protections include the ability to know where information is, when it has been accessed, processed, or changed, and require increased security measures. Non-compliance fines are growing Consolidate the flow of data for better visibility, controls, and quality Lack of universal agreement on enterprise definition of cloud computing Separate instances for security versus multitenancy for efficiency High profile data loss events dampen enthusiasm for cloud computing Creates a challenge to cloud computing as a mainstream approach to IT and IT-enabled services Separate instances lose some of the cost efficiencies of the multitenancy approach, while new security standards for multitenancy technologies continue to emerge Need to address data losses and acknowledge problems, then solve them honesty is key Adopt standards-based definitions and demand the same of vendors Focus on control, customization, and optionality in deciding which approach to take, observe security model improvement Create layered security model with real time exception reporting 16
17 Cloud vendors are turning negatives to positives in managing transactional and data risk Leverage a single data assurance platform across all transactional areas to reduce risk Access continuous vendor upgrades to security and transaction assurance and visibility Pursue technology that adheres to global standards (and maybe participates in setting them) Vendors with domain expertise extend the value of data beyond its own worth to ease regulatory compliance (Patriot Act in the US, Data Protection rules in the EU) Backup, redundancy, recovery without dedicating internal resources State of the art, continuous improvement in performance All risk is ultimately operational Operational Risk Security Regulation Liability Assurance Performance 17
18 The endgame: Managing the value of data goes beyond basic infrastructure to knowing the data s function, and applying domain expertise to get it right Scalability Analytics Enterprise data Transaction data File transfer Data integration FROM ANY SOURCE Critical messages THROUGH ANY INTERFACE TO ANY USER FOR ANY PURPOSE Expansive coverage that is expected from today s business intelligence 18
19 Today s data management requires a layered approach, one that every vendor must demonstrate Domain level: business purpose, value, compliance Functional level: transaction, history, reporting Infrastructure level: network performance, assurance, security Vendor domain expertise Vendor technical expertise Vendor infrastructure reliability Source: CEB TowerGroup 19
20 Conclusion The cloud business model continues to grow and over time will become a mainstream element of most business operations As the cloud grows, so does business complexity and the challenge of managing more data from more sources for: Business value Regulatory compliance Transparency and visibility provide the proof of performance that is becoming ever more important The best technology providers will augment their solutions with business operational knowledge and domain area expertise 20

22 FFIEC: Outsourced Cloud Computing July 10, 2012 When evaluating the feasibility of outsourcing to a cloud-computing service provider, it is important to look beyond potential benefits and to perform a thorough due diligence and risk assessment of elements specific to that service. Vendor management, information security, audits, legal and regulatory compliance, and business continuity planning are key elements of sound risk management and risk mitigation controls for cloud computing.

27 TowerGroup: A Surge in Managed Services Larger FSIs will find this mode of outsourcing attractive to assure standardization of a service with SLAs that can be adjusted as business conditions change across the contract life cycle Managed services will grow from $6 billion in 2010 to more than $18.5 billion by 2015, a 25% CAGR The rapid growth rate will be driven in part by islands of expertise that vendors are developing that will offer state-of-the-art technology and industry-leading knowledge, coupled with expertise in compliance, which will be attractive to FSIs faced with higher costs for in-house services The rate of growth of managed services will depend on the vendors' ability to provide the transparency that FSIs need in the face of stiffer regulations Source: TowerGroup, Sourcing, Resourcing, or Outsourcing: Globalizing Operations in Financial Services by 2015, Rodney Nelsestuen, #V68:02ALL, 07/18/11 Slide GXS, Inc.
