The Biggest Cyber Breaches In Financial Service History

We have all seen the high-profile news stories of cyber criminals targeting the financial services sector often with devastating financial and reputational consequences. Yet beyond these anecdotal examples the reality is more shocking, between February and April 2020, cyber-attacks against financial institutions rose by 238%. The proliferation in attacks has shifted the dial, and the question organisations are asking is no longer if they will suffer an attack — it’s when. As concerning as these stats and stories are there are many things as an organisation you can do to solidify your security posture so you don’t fall victim. Often it starts and ends with your processes and procedures, compliance and governance is critical to establishing these!
