Sheltered Harbor

Following a decade of work to strengthen the operational resilience of the financial sector, the Board of Directors of Sheltered Harbor has approved the wind-down of the organization and its key assets being transferred to FS-ISAC, the parent company. Moving forward, the Sheltered Harbor specification and supporting documents will be available to all FS-ISAC members, managed by FS-ISAC’s Resilience Congress, composed of senior resilience executives at FS-ISAC member firms. Sheltered Harbor is proud of the meaningful role it has played over the last ten years in advancing industry preparedness, collaboration, and resilience in the face of systemic risk. As a participant-driven, not-for-profit, industry-led organization, Sheltered Harbor helped move the financial sector forward through its specification, guides, and by engaging the financial sector and authorities on key concepts of resilience by design and data integrity in support of continuity of critical services for customers. FS-ISAC and on behalf of the sector, we are deeply grateful to the financial institutions, regulators, partners, and individuals who contributed their time, expertise, and commitment to this mission.
