Financial Services
The connection that financial businesses have to wealth – and the global economic system as a whole – make them a continually high-value target for cyberattackers.
Breaking the Bank
Financial services companies are consistently on the frontlines of the fight against attackers, from financially motivated hackers to state-sponsored intruders, thus requiring more advanced security compared to other industries. The good news is that you can take risk-based steps to reinforce your security posture and boost your maturity.
What the Financial Services Industry Needs to Do
Protect against advanced malware, including ransomware, distributed by organized cybercriminal groups.
Reduce detection time for cyber threats, particularly on endpoints as the prevalence of connected devices grow.
Identify vulnerabilities across databases, networks and applications (including mobile, as well as ATMs) and ensure appropriate data protection.
Rapidly mitigate the impact of a security incident with a comprehensive incident response plan.
