Focus On Fighting Cyber Crime In Financial Services

Financial services are at the heart of our global economy and it’s safe to say cyber crime is a major risk for the finance and banking and the high-profile cyber attack that saw hackers attempt to steal nearly $1 billion from Bangladesh’s central bank in 2016 is still the largest bank theft  in history. 

Effective cyber security techniques can protect networks, data, computers, and software, but finding the  right professional support with financial services expertise can be a challenge.

Cyber criminals are becoming increasingly ambitious in their use of technology to appropriate money undetected, before swiftly moving it around the world. Every organisation will have its unique risks, and no one model can serve as a one-size-fits-all approach to cyber resilience.

Cyber attacks are aimed at making unauthorised change, steal money, or destroy data. Some of the common types of cyber attacks are malware, phishing, ransomware, and social engineering. However, cyber crime and malicious hacking have intensified, at the same time, financial regulators  have increased their use of economic sanctions, targeting countries, public and private entities.

Needless to say, sophisticated cyber security for financial services organissations is more crucial than ever and  there are several cyber security companies focused on helping financial institutions keep secure:

Below are 3 Cyber Security Companies Tackling Cyber Crime:
