Financial Services Organizations Face Increasing Risks from Breaches, Fraud, and an Evolving Regulatory Landscape
Financial organizations have rapidly adopted cloud services to drive innovation, improve customer experiences, and increase operational efficiency. However, this adoption also brings risk of data breaches, unauthorized access, and compliance challenges that can expose sensitive customer data and regulated financial records.
Sensitive Customer Data is at Risk
Personally identifiable information (PII), financial records, and transaction data are highly targeted in cloud environments, where exposure can lead to identity theft, fraud, and reputational damage for the financial institution.
Exposure to AI Tools and Integrations
SaaS vendors often expose sensitive data to their AI services or AI integrations. This can expose sensitive data to unauthorized processing, increasing compliance risks under privacy and financial regulations.
Cloud Service and SaaS Provider Compliance Risks
Cloud providers often manage encryption systems within their infrastructure, retaining access to both data and keys. This undermines data sovereignty and can conflict with regulatory requirements for key separation and control.
Complex Global Compliance Requirements
Financial institutions must navigate regulations such as GLBA, SOX, CCPA, GDPR, APRA CPS 234, FINRA and SEC rules, and other frameworks while operating in multi-tenant cloud environments. Maintaining continuous compliance in these environments is challenging without precise controls.
The Cloud Data Protection Platform Protects Highly Regulated Sensitive Data in the Cloud
Financial institutions can secure sensitive customer and financial data while meeting regulatory compliance requirements. Sensitive data is protected with field-level encryption or tokenization before it enters cloud services and SaaS platforms, ensuring privacy and security.
