Australians are losing more than $3 billion to scams each year. The rising danger of fraud from stolen personal information and scams means we must each be vigilant in safeguarding against these threats.
The threat of cybercrime has never loomed larger over the finance industry.
A series of high-profile cyber-attacks on major companies in the past year has compromised tens of millions of data records — so many Australians have had their data accessed. Most Australians have either been directly impacted or know a close family member or friend who has fallen victim to these data breaches.
Keeping client data safe from hackers, verifying identification, whether to use password managers and the risks of using public Wi-Fi are among the cyber security topics that financial advisers should be mindful of.
