Fighting Cybercrime in the Financial Services Sector

When it comes to cybercrime, no industry is safe. However, the financial sector continues to be heavily targeted and is a highly lucrative target for cybercriminals because their data is more valuable. For financial institutions, the potential damage from cyber attacks extends beyond simply stealing money from customer accounts but also costs firms their revenue, reputation and customer base. To protect themselves and their customers in an increasingly dangerous digital environment, cyber security has become a vital investment for financial institutions.
