Cybersecurity in 2018: The Toughest Year Yet for the Finance Industry

One of the biggest business risks to the financial service industry is cybercrime. Cybercriminals are after banking and financial credentials, trading and investor information or strategies, consumer data, business and tax filing, fraudulent redemptions and more. Breaches can result in financial loss, disruption of operation, compromised confidential information and reputational damage. This significant risk has prompted regulators to put a stronger focus on cybersecurity in 2018.   In this talk, we will discuss how alternative investment firms can navigate regulations and explore cyber-attack trends, best practices, and proactive measures to reduce your cyber threat profile, mitigate risk, and avoiding regulatory investigations and investor disclosures.
