What are the cybersecurity vulnerabilities the Financial Industry faces?

Financial firms face threats from human error, hard drive malfunction, and cyberattackers using malware, phishing expeditions, and data theft to steal treasure-troves of client and financial information. Accounts communicate with clients and pass everything from social security numbers to bank account information via electronic methods. Your customers information must be protected in transit and in your possession.

Not only do you have to meet your industry rules, but in most cases, you must meet the industry rules of your clients as well.
