The pandemic has pushed the perimeter of the company from our offices to each employee’s home.
Cybersecurity: What we’re doing
Cybercrime is a growing threat to businesses all over the world. In fact, the World Economic Forum’s Global Risk Report 2020 cited cyberattacks as the sixth largest threat facing businesses and countries, putting it behind only environmental factors and concerns over the potential use of weapons of mass destruction.
Nowhere is this threat more pronounced than in financial services, which criminals target in the hope of making direct financial gain and using a wide variety of increasingly sophisticated methods. Keeping our business and our clients safe is not just about having the best technology, but also making sure all Pantheon colleagues are aware of their role as our first – and most important – line of defence.
