RSM Among First to Integrate Cyber Risk Institute (CRI) Profile, Enhancing Cyber Risk Support for Clients
CHICAGO – (October 1, 2025) – RSM US LLP (“RSM”) – the leading provider of assurance, tax and consulting services for the middle market – is among the first firms to integrate the Cyber Risk Institute (CRI) Profile into its cyber consulting services as a CRI Premium Innovator. This collaboration with the Cyber Risk Institute, a not-for-profit coalition of financial institutions and trade associations, strengthens RSM’s commitment to helping clients navigate today’s complex cyber risk landscape with greater precision and confidence.
A framework for the future
CRI Profile has emerged as a leading alternative to legacy tools, offering diagnostic-driven criteria and crosswalks to major regulatory frameworks, making it easier for institutions to assess, align and act on cyber risk priorities.
“RSM implemented this framework well ahead of industry adoption to expand its approach to support broader client needs,” said Matt Franko, principal with RSM US LLP. “We’ve been using the CRI Profile for years, and this announcement signals to the market that we’re not just ready — we’re already delivering for organizations across the financial sector, from leading regional U.S. financial institutions to top global banks.”
Looking ahead
With rising demand from financial institutions seeking more robust and prescriptive frameworks, RSM offers a differentiated path forward that combines regulatory precision with tailored delivery. As the industry transitions away from the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council Cybersecurity Assessment Tool, RSM is uniquely positioned to guide institutions with clarity, confidence and deep cybersecurity insight.
