For banks and other financial institutions, the protection of customers' personal data is at the top of the priority list, so the struggle against cybercriminals never ends.

The digitalization of financial services has brought new challenges, with customers increasingly starting to make financial transactions using their smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktops. Each of these customer endpoints represents an opportunity for hackers to breach a bank's network and compromise its operations.

Cyberattacks on the rise

For every major cyberattack, there are countless similar attacks only noticed by businesses and their customers.

Businesses that suffer a high-profile data breach can face damage to their brand and customer relationships. Not only is there a high cost to resolve the breach, but banks and financial institutions in particular face a loss of customer trust that can have long term consequences.

Since banks and other financial institutions do not have the option of going back to the old way of doing business, they have little options other than to develop their cybersecurity strategies.
