Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA)

  • Cikk

GLBA overview

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) is a US law that reformed the financial services industry, allowing commercial and investment banks, securities firms, and insurance companies to consolidate, and addressed concerns about protecting consumer privacy. It required the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and other financial services regulators to implement regulations to address such privacy provisions as the Financial Privacy Rule and the Safeguards Rule. GLBA requirements to safeguard sensitive consumer data apply to financial institutions that offer financial products and services to consumers, such as loans, investment advice, and insurance. The FTC is charged with enforcing compliance.

Microsoft and GLBA

Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Office 365, Dynamics 365, and Microsoft Power BI can help meet the stringent requirements of providing cloud services for financial services institutions. As part of our support, we offer guidance to help you comply with the requirements of the GLBA by providing technical and organizational safeguards to help maintain security and prevent unauthorized usage.

Microsoft has developed risk assessment tools for both Azure and Office 365 to help you more efficiently conduct a risk assessment of Azure and Office 365 services. The tool (an Excel spreadsheet) features numerous information security domains (such as security policy and risk management) that track the requirements of financial services regulations and other relevant standards, including GLBA (in Column R in the Azure spreadsheet and Column Q in the Office 365 spreadsheet). The tools explain how Azure and Office 365 comply with each requirement applicable to cloud service providers and can help you meet GLBA security requirements.

Office 365 and GLBA

Office 365 environments

Microsoft Office 365 is a multi-tenant hyperscale cloud platform and an integrated experience of apps and services available to customers in several regions worldwide. Most Office 365 services enable customers to specify the region where their customer data is located. Microsoft may replicate customer data to other regions within the same geographic area (for example, the United States) for data resiliency, but Microsoft will not replicate customer data outside the chosen geographic area.

This section covers the following Office 365 environments:

  • Client software (Client): commercial client software running on customer devices.
  • Office 365 (Commercial): the commercial public Office 365 cloud service available globally.
  • Office 365 Government Community Cloud (GCC): the Office 365 GCC cloud service is available for United States Federal, State, Local, and Tribal governments, and contractors holding or processing data on behalf of the US Government.

  • Office 365 DoD (DoD): the Office 365 DoD cloud service is designed according to DoD Security Requirements Guidelines Level 5 controls and supports strict federal and defense regulations. This environment is for the exclusive use by the US Department of Defense.
