Advanced email security for banks and the financial sector
For safe and compliant external and internal communication
Banks’ email communication is heavy with sensitive information. It is therefore no surprise they are among the five industries most affected by email security threats such as ransomware, phishing, malware and social engineering attacks. There is also the rapidly growing number of attacks on customers and partners such as bank spoofing, which make financial institutions involuntary participants in fraud. All this can lead to significant financial losses, but also to reputational damage and loss of trust among customers.
As a main pillar in the cyber security strategy, email security is not only a matter of maintaining customer trust and ensuring the stability and reliability of the financial system, but also of compliance. Banks and financial institutions are subject to strict regulatory requirements for data protection. If they fail to invest in adequate email security measures that safeguard sensitive information, prevent data breach and data leakage, they are at risk of regulatory fines.
