Executive Summary

The financial services industry is under cyberattack with threat vectors including data breaches, advanced attacks that bypass security protections, and misconfigured cloud services. Regulators across the world demand a higher standard of performance from financial firms, as do customers who require safe access to their funds in an increasingly mobile and app-driven world. The industry will remain a key target for threat actors due to money and identities being on offer, along with opportunities for financial sabotage to cripple a country. Financial services organizations must revisit the efficacy of current cybersecurity protections, invest in new solutions to address emerging threats, and build a strong security posture by following best practices.

The term “financial services organization” covers a wide range of organizations including banks (central, retail, commercial, and internet), credit unions, investment banks, insurance companies, and brokerage firms.
