The Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated the pace of change - creating new accepted ways of working - both for employees and customers. This transformation while delivering real benefit risks brings a threat to the foundation of financial services - trust. As financial service organisations accelerate their digitalisation programs maintaining trust has never been more challenging.

The threat of cyber-attacks are widespread - with the financial services sector the target of more cyber-attacks than other sectors during the Covid-19 pandemic, exposing institutions, their employees and customers to substantial risk going forward.  In response, regulators are heavily focused on systemic cyber risk and the contagion across firms and third parties.

In May 2021 Citrix conducted a panel discussion with senior bankers into the future of security landscape for financial institutions, where common themes around the risk of 3rd Party Access, regulation, and the challenges of security verses ease of use for end users emerged. 

During this session we will share with you the trends on perceived threats in the security landscape, review the challenges that increasing use of APIs in open banking pose and explore how data insights that deliver answers to questions you didn't think to ask are helping global banks understand, intercept and resolve security challenges in real time - preventing financial penalties and reputational damage.

TOPICS:

  • Cyber security
  • Open banking
  • 3rd Party Access
  • DDoS attacks & impact on productivity
  • New ways of working

KEY OBJECTIVES & LEARNING OUTCOMES:

  • Learn how to protect against new security lapses in the pivot to a hybrid workforce
  • Consider the risk of 3rd Party access and options to mitigate risk
