1 Last Updated: February 25, 2015 Common Data Breach Threats Facing Financial s Although exact figures are elusive, there is no question that the number of data security breaches both reported and unreported has been increasing exponentially in recent years. According to publicly-available sources, in the period from January 2014 through February 2015, more than 300 data breaches affecting nearly a billion customer records were reported in the United States. 1 Of those breaches, approximately 10% targeted financial institutions. The comparatively low percentage of data breaches affecting financial institutions likely reflects heightened awareness of cybersecurity risks and concomitant preparedness, since financial institutions have always had an elevated risk profile and their practices are subject to various types of regulatory scrutiny. Regardless of the prevalence of breaches in the industry, cybercrime is considered the second greatest economic criminal threat to financial institutions, with 39% of surveyed firms reporting a cybersecurity attack in By one estimate, the average cost of a corporate data breach in 2014 was $3.5 million, representing a 15% increase over Given rising costs associated with responding to data breaches, and the prevalence of cyber attacks aimed at financial institutions, it is important for entities operating in this sector to be aware of, and prepare to tackle, the most common cybersecurity threats facing the industry. The table below details a selection of data breaches reported by financial institutions in 2014 and early As with all security breaches, the details vary by incident. Nevertheless, certain patterns emerge. Based on the breaches listed below, the top cybersecurity threats facing the financial industry appear to be: 1. Hacking: Approximately 32% of the breaches were caused by unauthorized third parties (hackers) gaining access to the entity s network. 2. Employee malfeasance or negligence: Approximately 29% of the breaches were caused by employee theft of customer information or employee negligence (e.g., exposing the company to phishing scams or other types of malware that compromised the company s network). 3. Vendor malfeasance or negligence: Approximately 21% of the breaches were caused by third party vendors that intentionally or accidentally shared customer information with unauthorized parties. 4. Theft of devices containing electronic data: Approximately 18% of the breaches were caused by theft of company servers, external hard drives, and employee laptops. 1 Penny Crosman, Eight Lessons for Banks from the Data Breaches of 2014, AMERICAN BANKER (Dec. 2, 2014), 2 PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Threats to the Financial Sector: Financial Services sector analysis of PwC s 2014 Global Economic Crime Survey, available at 3 Ponemon Institute Releases 2014 Cost of Data Breach: Global Analysis, PONEMON INSTITUTE (May 5, 2014),
