Connectivity and security challenges in financial services
Financial institutions must keep customer‑facing services available, protect highly sensitive data, and satisfy regulators and auditors.
Branch outages, trading latency, and data breaches can quickly turn into financial, legal, and reputational problems.
What a financial‑grade network looks like
- High availability: Redundant circuits, paths, and devices for critical sites and data centers.
- Strong segmentation: Separate zones for branches, ATMs, trading systems, and partner access.
- End‑to‑end encryption: Protect data in motion between sites, cloud, and customer‑facing apps.
- Comprehensive logging: Capture activity for forensics, monitoring, and compliance reporting.
