SECURE FRICTIONLESS FINANCE

Advanced Workforce and Workspace Intelligence, Identity and Access Management for Forward-Looking Financial Enterprises

In spite of continued spending on technologies and initiatives, security incidents at financial institutions continue to rise, evidenced by escalating high-profile external and insider-led attacks. Security experts agree that the current approach of dealing with security in departmental silos is leading to increased risk, rising security costs and a climate of mistrust on the part of the regulators, who remain frustrated with recurring breaches.

Consider this real life scenario: a senior trader at a major financial trading firm submits a two-week vacation via the HR system. He then decides to forgo vacation to take advantage of a swing in the market and proceeds to execute extremely high-value trades on the trading floor. Even though he badged in to gain physical access, his managers think he is on vacation and sound the alarm on what they perceive to be fraudulent trades. But this comes only after the fact. While it ended well, the current inability to correlate physical presence for high-value staffers with the operational financial systems continues to create huge risk for financial institutions.

Alert Enterprise has the answer to this dilemma: a fully converged cyber-physical solution that simultaneously correlates roles-based workforce identities for physical and digital workspace access in real-time, while automating mitigation steps to safeguard the enterprise.

The case for cyber-physical based identity management

Account numbers, Personally Identifiable Information (PII), Application Information, access codes and other banking information reside on servers in enterprise facilities or data centers. Who has physical access to these critical assets? Auditors want to know and regulators want companies to have information readily available, or face the consequences in the way of fines. The ability to manage and monitor both physical and logical identities in a common platform reduces operational cost while enhancing overall security.
