In this industry, an accurate cyber risk management is essential, as critical infrastructures, such as networks and plants, are always digitalized and interconnected, and any improper access to customer data can produce high sanctions or compromise business continuity in a very damaging way.

A cyber attack on these systems, often consisting of thousands of assets distributed nationwide, can cause service interruptions, significant economic damage and risks to public safety. Protecting these systems means ensuring business continuity and customer trust.

In the financial services industry, accurate cyber risk management is crucial to protect sensitive data, ensure continuity of financial services and comply with increasingly stringent regulations, such as GDPR, PSD2, EBA and DORA.

Financial institutions are among the favorite targets of cyber attacks, and a breach can undermine customer trust, cause serious economic losses and destabilize the entire financial system.

An advanced Risk Management platform can provide a clear view of the parties involved and offers financial services a complete overview of the cyber risk and the impacts that can involve entire technological infrastructures.

The food & retail industry is a very tricky area of ​​Cyber ​​Security, presenting numerous cases of threats that frequently ask for risk management interventions.

Here the main risks concern theft of data relating to customers, loyalty cards and suppliers, attacks on management and payment systems, phishing and very frequent social engineering due to the numerous operators often located and not always trained on the use of the systems.

Another risk factor is caused by attacks on websites and e-commerce platforms, where numerous end-points are accessible by customers, suppliers and collaborators throughout the supply chain.

In the manufacturing industry, which includes all companies with large production lines, the main cyber security risks concern Operational Technology (OT) systems, due to potential tampering with machinery and systems with consequent interruption of production, possible DDoS attacks on connected industrial automation systems and the potential attack via management end-points accessible to workers and suppliers in the context of access control and the supply chain. It is therefore essential to monitor all systems in a cohesive manner between IT, OT and IoT components, whose connections and frequent data exchanges can cause high Cyber ​​Security risks.

In Government, Cyber Risk management is essential to protect citizens’ personal and sensitive data, ensure the continuity of public services, and prevent attacks that could compromise national security. Government are often the target of cyberattacks because they manage critical information and strategic infrastructures. Furthermore, in an increasingly tense geopolitical context, the risk of illicit access by foreign state actors, interested in collecting sensitive data for espionage or cyber warfare purposes, makes cybersecurity an absolute priority for the sovereignty and defense of any public entity.
