Financial Industry Challenges:

Evolving Threats - targeted attacks aimed at compromising confidential customer information, financial data and business intelligence are increasing — as are losses due to digital attacks.
New Demands on IT - increasing mobile and web transactions by customers, as well as growing IT needs within the enterprise, are opening more avenues for confidential information to be compromised.
Stricter Regulations - industry and government bodies are passing increasingly tight restrictions and requirements in order to reduce risk and ensure compliance.

Award-Winning, Multi-layered Network Protection

WatchGuard's award-winning unified threat management appliances (WatchGuard Firebox) and virtual security appliances (WatchGuard XTMv) deliver the industry's top multi-layered protection, providing you with advanced networking, strong performance, and the powerful management tools necessary to make sure your business can compete.

WatchGuard XTM financial service solutions protect sensitive customer data from compromise in a layered fashion, delivering broad protection that is more cost effective and far simpler to manage than deploying and administering multiple, single-point products.

Smarter Security Simplifies Compliance

When demonstrating compliance with government and industry regulations, the hard truth is – if a procedure or activity is not properly documented, it didn't happen.

WatchGuard solutions enable you to:

Set uniform security policies with the click of a mouse
Validate that security policies are working
Use interactive, real-time monitoring to take instant preventive or corrective action
Perform in-depth analysis of network activity, security threats, and user behaviors through full-featured reporting

With tools like these, you will enjoy an unprecedented view of what's going on in your network while gathering the security auditing information you need to demonstrate compliance with state and federal regulations including SOX, SEC requirements, PCI DSS, and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).
