In addition to FFIEC guidelines you might find some NIST documents usefull:

SP800-26 "Security Self-Assessment Guide for Inforamtion Technology Systems"
http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-26/sp800-26.pdf

and

SP800-42 "Guideline on Network Security Testing"
http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-42/NIST-SP800-42.pdf
