What’s the Current State of IT Security in the Financial Services Sector? SANS Goes to the Source for the Answer...
When it comes to keeping up with advances in cybercrime, how is the financial services sector fairing? What impact are evolving regulations, industry standards, cloud services, BYOD, big data and escalating global cyber-threats having on the infosec practices and people tasked with keeping the sector secure?
To get some perspective on the current state of IT security among financial services firms, the SANS Institute completed a detailed industry-specific survey in early February 2014. Tenable co-sponsored the research project, which gathered results from over 400 respondents.
SANS analysts G. Mark Hardy and John Pescatore will discuss and analyze the survey findings during a webcast at 1 PM ET, March 26. They will be joined by Jack Daniel, Tenable’s technical product manager and other sponsors, who will provide additional insights about the challenges and opportunities facing cyber security teams operating in this highly regulated and sector.
