State of Cybersecurity: Financial Services (2021)
About this talk
The average cost of a data breach in the financial services sector tops $5 million USD, which is higher than the average cost across all other sectors (at $3.86 million USD).
Against the backdrop of a global pandemic, businesses experienced significant disruptions, underwent technological transformations and had to rethink plans for sustainable, long-term growth. Banks and insurance firms were no exception. New opportunities arose all around. However, cyber criminals often capitalized on available opportunities before legitimate enterprises could do so. As a result, organizations have suffered. Nearly 75% of banks and insurance groups have reported a spike in cybercrime. With skeleton staffing and slashed budgets, cyber threats are ravaging the finance sector.

- FSI cybersecurity threats and trends in 2021 and beyond
