Financial-sector activities – such as consumer and commercial banking, funding, liquidity, and insurance services – were identified by the Department of Homeland Security, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, as National Critical Functions. Those functions are so vital to the United States that any disruption, corruption, or dysfunction would have a debilitating effect on U.S. security, the national economy, and/or public health and safety.

The 2020 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report pinpoints this sector as a favorite playground for criminal elements who seek access to easily monetized data. As the telework continues to dominate the Federal workforce, risk increases with reduced visibility and control, making manual security and compliance monitoring increasingly difficult.

This 90-minute discussion will tap the expertise of leaders from financial organizations to explore cybersecurity risks agencies face today.
