Financial CyberDefense Webinar: Striking a Balance Between Compliance & CyberSecurity
Business Process Management | Cloud | Corporate Development | CX | Data Governance | Data Science & Analytics | Digital Health | Education/STEM | Fintech | Information Security | Infrastructure | Sales Leadership | Southeastern Software Association | Young Professionals
We are entering a new realm of cyber-attacks, placing financial organizations directly in the crosshairs. In 2021, a number of major financial organizations were hit with devastating attacks, including Automatic Funds Transfer Services, Flagstar Bank, CNA Financial & more. Larger companies with more resources are being affected by cyber-attacks than ever before. Where does that leave smaller financial businesses in protecting sensitive data without stout resources or infrastructure in place? And, how does a smaller financial firm strike a balance between achieving financial compliance with regulators & properly structuring cybersecurity for their organization that protects critical data simultaneously? Cybercriminals understand that expertise & resources pose a difficult challenge for smaller financial organizations & are willing to target them as low-hanging fruit. Less work on their end.
