About Yawei Yuan

As a trusted advisor in Accenture, I lead multiple teams in helping clients shape resilient cybersecurity strategies grounded in a comprehensive understanding of banking regulatory frameworks, including FFIEC, FDIC, NYDFS, and GLBA. I design and align risk and control frameworks to meet stringent regulatory expectations, driving operational resilience across the financial sector. My experience includes extensive work with the RCSA process, ensuring that risk assessments and controls are robust, proactive, and aligned with industry best practices. Additionally, my expertise extends to the technology sector, where I have developed strong data protection programs that prioritize privacy, compliance, and adherence to best practices for safeguarding sensitive information.Previously, as a Technology Risk Manager at EY, I specialized in cyber risk and control frameworks, with a strong focus on SOX, SOC1, SOC2, and cloud security environments. My role involved conducting comprehensive assessments (NIST, ISO, CMMC) and audits to enhance risk mitigation strategies, fortify internal technology controls, and ensure robust compliance. Leveraging my expertise across various cybersecurity capabilities, I developed adaptable security solutions that align with rigorous regulatory and operational standards, supporting a proactive, process-driven approach to risk management. This experience has equipped me with the skills to design and implement controls that not only meet compliance requirements but also elevate an organization’s overall security posture.
