Financial Security Services

Financial Institutions (FIs) are investing in the tools and technologies they need to keep up with the constant change of the digital era. Many of these FIs are rapidly leveraging cloud technologies to deliver enhanced products and services to their clients. The next wave of disruptive innovation is expected to arise from the technology-enabled, platform driven ecosystems now taking shape across many different industries.

Having strategically harnessed technology to produce digital businesses, many companies are now creating the adaptable, scalable, and interconnected platform for an ecosystem-based digital economy. The speed at which newer technologies are being adopted by FIs significantly add to the security and compliance risks that need to be managed.

Unfortunately, the fast changes in the digital economy have also introduced intimidating risks. The financial services industry is under attack by numerous significant cybercriminal threats. In many cases where certain systems were breached, the method of compromise was attributed to simple configuration errors or missed patches that, in turn, gave rise to a critical vulnerability. Given the constant competitive pressure and the current economic strain to operate more efficiently, due care to address security risks is more challenging than ever.

Sophisticated Attacks

The already heavily regulated finance industry is now subject to additional cybersecurity standards from the NYDFS, NAIC, and CFTC. The Fed, OCC, and FDIC also continue to issue rule-making guidance on cyber risk management standards. As attacks become more sophisticated, regulators retaliate by raising their level of scrutiny, while global cybersecurity and privacy legislation are evolving.

Not As Secure

With such strict data security and privacy regulations, it is easy to assume that the finance sector would be among the most secure when discussing global vertical markets. However, reality paints an entirely different picture, as many millions of personally identifiable information (PII) records are compromised each year.

Preventive Approach

Assessing the state and security posture protecting Financial Service products/services has never been more important. Architecting preventive controls is essential, and implementing detective controls and processes are just as crucial.

Penetration Testing

In lieu of allocating resources to implement appropriate preventative controls, penetration testing is one alternative detective control that can expose sneaky areas of risk created when hastened application development and/or overburdened system administrators inadvertently create vulnerabilities. Penetration Testing is also a fundamental security standard requirement for Financial Institutions.

Vulnerability Assessments (VA) & Vulnerability Management (VM)
Performing a vulnerability assessment can provide an accurate “point-in-time” representation of the organization’s security posture. However, this is not enough. There must be a mechanism incorporated into the procedures to ensure that the VA process is conducted on a continual basis. This is the only way to really minimize the overall risk.
