Security Reference Blueprint for Financial Services IT

Information and network security teams at financial institutions must address business demands for digital transformation, tailored customer engagements, and expanded third-party partnerships while adopting new technology, protecting customer data, supporting legacy technologies, and complying with regulations. This entails securely enabling access to personal, financial, and corporate data found in private data centers or the cloud from a variety of locations—including retail bank branches, campus sites, mobile devices, standalone ATMs, and a growing business partner eco-system—despite the increasing volume and sophistication of threats. The Security Reference Blueprint for Financial Services empowers institutions to protect customer and corporate data, rationalize the scope of compliance, improve cyber resilience, and prepare financial institutions to meet new and emerging information security and technological challenges stemming from digital transformation, cost containment, regulatory obligations, and an increased emphasis on improved customer experience.
