Why Financial Firms Face Unique IT Risks
Financial services firms hold the most sensitive data attackers want and face the strictest regulators in the country. Generic IT simply isn't enough.
Financial Data Is a Prime Target
Banks, RIAs, and CPAs are among the most targeted organizations for phishing, ransomware, and wire-fraud attacks. A single breach can cost millions — and destroy client trust overnight.
Complex Regulatory Landscape
FINRA, SEC Regulation S-P, GLBA, SOX, and state-level data privacy laws create a maze of overlapping requirements — with steep fines for firms that fall short.
Business Email Compromise (BEC)
Fraudulent wire transfer requests and executive impersonation cost financial firms billions annually. Sophisticated email security and staff training are non-negotiable defenses.
Data Retention & eDiscovery
Regulators require years of tamper-proof records. Manual backup approaches leave firms exposed to data loss and audit failure — and make eDiscovery a nightmare.
Remote Work & Cloud Security
Hybrid and remote workforces introduce risk when advisors access client portals and financial systems from unmanaged devices or unsecured home networks.
Third-Party Vendor Risk
Custodians, trading platforms, and CRM vendors all represent potential attack vectors into your firm. Proper vendor risk management and access controls are essential — and often overlooked.
