Zero Trust Security in the Financial Services Sector

Financial services companies face increasing security risks in the digital landscape, where protecting sensitive data and maintaining customer trust is crucial. Implementing a Zero Trust Security approach is essential in this context, assuming no user or device is trustworthy and employing strict access controls and continuous monitoring.

At Business Technology Architects (BTA), we provide technology services tailored for financial services companies, including cybersecurity, cloud security, ransomware detection/prevention, incident response policy, data loss prevention, IoT security, and extended detection and response, all based on the Zero Trust Security approach.

BTA conducts risk and vulnerability assessments to help financial services companies identify and assess potential security risks and vulnerabilities. This includes addressing insider threats through monitoring tools and access controls, evaluating third-party vendors' security posture, identifying weaknesses in legacy systems, and mitigating phishing attempts and ransomware attacks. Unauthorized access risks are addressed through multi-factor authentication, access controls, and encryption.
