Banking & Financial Services Security

Security that’s right
on the money

From customers to institutions, from transactions to data, digital trust is essential to protect the financial world.

Protecting your capital investments in a
hyperconnected world

Today’s consumers expect more from online banking services, seeking convenience in tasks like opening accounts, making payments and transfers, and submitting loan applications. But the accessibility offered by digital banking also opens the door to heightened cybersecurity risks.

To stay competitive and secure, your bank has to provide delightful digital experiences without compromising customer data security—all while combating phishing attacks, preparing for quantum computing, and complying with GDPR, PCI DSS, KYC, and AML.

Security solutions that are right on the money

Protecting consumers by protecting their data

Reduce the risk of outages and breaches by centralizing visibility and control of your digital certificates. Certificate lifecycle management grants visibility into certificate inventory and enables automation for monitoring, inspecting, reissuing, revoking, renewing, and procuring new certificates across your environment.

Preventing outages and costly attacks

Reduce the risk of costly business disruptions and non-compliance that can occur as a result of legacy PKI systems. Modern tools like DigiCert® Trust Lifecycle Manager deliver visibility, automation, and integration across the PKI landscape to improve operational efficiency and identify vulnerabilities before an incident occurs.

Preparing for the future with crypto-agility

Every financial institution needs a robust plan for post-quantum cryptography to protect themselves and their customers from the vulnerabilities posed by quantum computers. DigiCert works closely with NIST and regulatory bodies to build policies for managing post-quantum cryptography. Begin now by making an inventory of your cryptographic assets.

Seeing and controlling software vulnerabilities

Minimize risks by implementing comprehensive software risk management strategies. Know what you publish and know it's safe. Using tools like DigiCert® Software Trust Manager, easily manage the security of third-party software, detect malware, and operationalize SBOMs for visibility into your software supply chain.

Operationalizing SBOMs for better transparency

DigiCert's Software Trust Manager can help ensure adherence to regulations, including new PCI requirements around software transparency through SBOMs. A centralized platform that robust policy controls, authentication and role separation, and comprehensive auditing and monitoring capabilities.

A bullish approach to
banking security
