Secure IoT for the Financial Industry

The world’s finances revolve almost exclusively around data and its safe, accurate and verifiable transmission. Unsurprisingly, this has led to the Internet of Things (IoT) playing a major role in the Financial Services industry

IoT Delivers Financial Results
Throughout the financial services industry, IoT enables more efficient, personalized goods and services. Through every touchpoint, be it via ATMs, asset trades or previous purchases, a wider variety of data will help financial services firms identify their clients’ business needs and get insights that help them drive customer engagement. 

Use Cases

  • Enable automated payments from more connected devices, including wearables and TVs

  • Enhance insurance coverage with more accurate data from sensors in vehicles
  • Facilitate screenless banking, the next evolution in mobile bankingAdvance wealth management with a better understanding of client preferences

Protecting Data and Consumer Privacy
With Financial Services routinely ranking among the most highly targeted industries for cyberattacks, security must be the first priority.

Beyond the collection of huge amounts of customer data, IoT will change workflows and workplaces too. Financial Services employees want the flexibility to work when and where they want—and from their device of choice. The hyperconnectivity that makes higher levels of productivity possible can also expose companies and customers to increased security issues. Organizations must provide the best possible data management, security and standards to protect customer privacy.
