Financial Services Data is Financially Valuable Data

Protect your sensitive financial data against both internal and external threats with leading edge behavioral monitoring and analytics from Veriato.

The challenge of security in financial services is that nearly every bit of data is considered sensitive. Customer, financial, and investor data make up a majority of financial services and banking operations, making the protection of your data from improper use priority one.

Add to this the financial services industry’s need to remain compliant with mandates including GLBA, Dodd-Frank, SOX, PCI, and 23 NYCRR 500 that include penalties as high as $1M, and ensuring protection becomes a matter of also being able to also demonstrate protection.

Whether the threat comes from an external attacker or internal employee, financial services organizations need visibility into security of its data. And because operations revolve around continuous access and interaction with sensitive and valuable data, identifying improper use is difficult without visibility into how data is used or misused – and why.

How Veriato Helps

Protect, Prevent, and Remediate Threats with Veriato

Veriato helps financial services organizations of all kinds ensure the security of their data and operations through both predictive leading indicators based on user behavior, and detailed, contextual, rich logging of all user activity – both inside systems housing financial, customer, or investor data, as well as any other application. Veriato’s two-prong approach provides complete visibility into the individual actions of each user, while maintaining the privacy of employees.

Veriato’s unmatched visibility into user activity serves as the basis for behavioral analytics and activity monitoring, which together provide accurate early detection of both potential and active threats.

How Veriato Works

Veriato is endpoint-based, which ensures organizations have complete visibility into user behavior, regardless of application. By creating an audit trail that spans the entirety of a user’s activity – which includes application and resource usage, communications, web activity, and more – detection of threats (both analytics- and action-based), investigations, and contextual response is simplified.

Watching

Cerebral continually watches all user behaviors on every Windows workstation and server, MAC and Android device. It monitors all files, application, emails, chats, internet and network usage, psycholinguistics and more.

Analyzing

Cerebral develops a dynamic digital fingerprint for every user and group. It continually watches for significant variation from the baseline indicating a possible threat.

Additionally, Cerebral analyzes IP addresses and geolocations looking for signs of stolen credentials and rogue network access.

ALERTING

Rapid reaction to a breach is key to minimizing the damage. As soon as an anomaly is detected, Cerebral alerts the security team so that immediate action can be taken.

Alerting also minimizes the workload of the IT team who can focus on other issues, until an alert is sounded.

Seeing

Speed of remediation is governed by your ability to determine exactly what’s happening. Veriato’s Time-Capsule DVR gives you an immediate video view into the actual on-screen actions at any endpoint. Look back in time to see what that employee did 5 minutes ago, 5 hours ago or 5 weeks ago.

Reacting

When a breach occurs, keeping the compromised data from leaving the facility is job one.

The direct visibility that Cerebral provides, allows you to take action rapidly and with 100% confidence, while providing the visual evidence crucial for remediation, as well as criminal and legal action.
