The current risk environment for financial institutions is a very significant concern for executives, driven by a growing number of internal and external threats as well as increased regulatory demands. In the aftermath of the recent recession, institutions must have a heightened awareness of the risks that could do harm to important processes or operations as a whole. Your IT systems are likely under more pressure and scrutiny than ever as the demands on them increase.
