Banking And Financial Sectors

Information in the financial industry is of high value across the board. This creates a situation where every part of it is a potentially lucrative target. This threat model suggests a holistic approach to cybersecurity that leaves no attack surfaces uncovered. Regarding communications, protecting the exchanged information is of fundamental importance for both clients and financial institutions.

The Problem

Due to the constant exchange of high-value information in this sector, it has become a preferred target for cybercriminals. The latter have adopted increasingly sophisticated, multi-step attacks that use an arsenal of techniques to extract pieces of data from various points. Once pieced together, this data can be used to inflict severe financial and reputational damage.

Protecting data from such attacks calls for a holistic approach to cybersecurity which leaves no attack surface uncovered.
Communications are always under threat of eavesdropping and interception due to the nature of shared information.
