Financial institutions are top targets for security breaches. While the media often reminds us of high-profile network leaks, financial institutions of all sizes are at risk. Because the unintentional release of sensitive customer information is a larger risk than ever, it is essential that you be prepared to react efficiently and effectively in the event of a breach. In order to prepare for breaches in security, financial institutions must tighten their data security controls and plan for a potentially significant financial blow should these controls be insufficient. With continual threats of viruses, hackers and unauthorized use of sensitive information, your institution must respond by preventing, detecting and responding to cyber attacks through a well-orchestrated cyber security program.
