Challenge

The Costs and Risks of Legacy Networking

Financial institutions are the primary targets of cybercriminals because that’s where the money is. According to a Boston Consulting group cybersecurity report, banking and financial services organizations are 300 times more likely to be at risk of a cyberattack than other sectors. And the attacks can come from insiders, outsiders, hacktivists, or even nation-states.

With more dependency on a wide array of on-premise and 3rd-party cloud business applications, financial firms are now an even bigger target for cybercriminals looking for a big payday.

Bankers’ hours, once limited to about five hours daily, Monday through Friday, are now 24/7/365. New technologies — online banking, apps — and automation are unmatched in user convenience, but they also bring numerous new vulnerabilities to the financial services industry.

Network Security Challenges for Financial Institutions

  • Ensuring the security of corporate applications and mobile devices over public networks.

  • Protecting remote access to customer financial data and a growing array of SaaS applications.

  • Managing traditional networking hardware that can be resource-intensive, complex, and costly.

  • Providing point-to-point connections while maintaining scalability and flexibility.
