The Cyber Risk Landscape in Financial Services
Finance is targeted because it combines high-value assets, real-time transactions, and complex ecosystems (vendors, APIs, cloud services, and customer-facing apps). Threats typically concentrate in four areas –
1
Customer-facing attack surface
Pnline banking, fintech apps, portals, APIs
Payment and card environments
merchant flows, PSP integrations, checkout and settlement
2
Identity & access pathways)
Privileged access, third parties, contractors, internal accounts
3
Operational resilience
Availability risk, incident containment, and recovery readiness
4
Security in finance cannot be generic. It must be tested like an attacker would, validated against control requirements, and maintained with clear ownership and ongoing oversight.
