Over a third of breaches in the financial industry are the result of intentional or accidental exposure of critical information by insiders, according to Verizon. A bulk of incidents in the industry are the result of brute force or credential stuffing attacks, which again occur at the identity level.
Akku delivers powerful security at multiple levels of both identity and access. Its secure user directory is further reinforced through multi-factor and passwordless authentication. Akku also lets you restrict access only from your internal networks for team members with back-end roles, and only from whitelisted devices for employees on the field or working remotely, to deliver a comprehensive security solution.
Eliminate the risk of compromised credentials and identity-related breaches with Akku’s Cloud Directory, AMFA, and Access Manager.
Financial institutions are bound by regulations ranging from the GDPR in Europe to Sarbanes-Oxley in the USA, and the PCI DSS globally. Each regulation defines how data must be managed, accessed, and secured, and requires demonstrable proof by means of audits to verify that appropriate measures are in place.
Akku plays a major role in enabling statutory compliance for financial services businesses. Granular control can be exercised over the access permissions provided to each user, with visibility made available on Akku’s Smart Analytics dashboard. Protection of data through multi-factor authentication, access restrictions and password policies is also made possible and is easily verifiable. Finally, Akku also maintains comprehensive audit logs of all user access activity which is an important resource during compliance audits.
Streamline steps towards compliance and provide verifiable data during audits with Akku’s User Lifecycle Manager, AMFA, and Access Manager.
Productivity of your employees - whether they’re in the field, at the office, or even working from home - translates directly to a better customer experience (CX). On the flip side, delayed or broken access can negatively impact CX, while excessive access can open up security gaps.
Akku ensures that each of your users has exactly the permissions they really need, and makes access across applications quick and easy through its single sign-on. Password recovery is often a productivity drain, and by implementing a self-service process, your team is assured of immediate access when they need it.
