The Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Center or (FS-ISAC) is the global financial industry's resource for cyber and physical threat intelligence analysis and sharing. FS-ISAC is a member-owned non-profit, created by and for the financial services industry to help assure the resilience and continuity of the global financial services infrastructure and individual firms against acts that could significantly impact the sector’s ability to provide services critical to the orderly function of the global financial system and economy.

History
FS-ISAC was formed in 1999 in response to the Presidential Decision Directive 63, signed by President Clinton in 1998 which mandated that public and private sectors share information about physical and cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities to help protect the US critical infrastructure via Information Sharing and Analysis Centers (ISACs). After the 9/11/2001 attacks and in response to subsequent federal actions, FS-ISAC expanded its role to encompass physical threats to the financial sector. In recent years FS-ISAC has expanded into a global organization and has played a a paramount role in leading several industry initiatives to better protect and serve the global financial services industry.
