Fintech services are changing the way we all do banking, loans, credit, etc. At the center of this is a LOT of data. Fintech companies are obligated to be good data stewards of consumer data via the applications, software, infrastructure that they develop and maintain as part of their overall business services. Cybersecurity resiliency will be a key factor in ensuring that consumer growth and trust is maintained for fintech organizations. Meet the topic of Zero trust. A healthy topic of discussion within the cybersecurity company and increasingly a hot topic in fintech startups and more mature organizations recognizing that the ecosystem of their product hinges on solid security architecture. Zero trust is a concept that states that trust should be implicit across these product environments but validated and verified and not simply once but all the time.
