The Covid-19 pandemic has shellshocked industries around the globe, but banking has been hit particularly hard — not just because of the virus, but also the bad actors taking advantage of the crisis, as well as cost and operational pressures inside the banks themselves. Hackers are using the chaos as a distraction to launder money and lure a vulnerable public into fraudulent schemes, using coronavirus fears and the promises of stimulus checks.
FAST START delivers financial institutions the immediate assistance they need to protect themselves and their customers against financial cybercrime. The product is packaged for rapid deployment, fast adoption, and minimal capital & contractual commitment to help banks that are currently operating with reduced security staff and budget.
“Covid-19 has severely impacted the world as we know it, but unfortunately, criminals are using the crisis as an excuse to line their pockets,” said Mark Gazit, CEO, ThetaRay. “ThetaRay is offering FAST START as a means for banks to defend themselves immediately while protecting their budgets during this chaotic time.”
“FAST START is the right market solution for the challenges faced across the banking industry in our current times,” said Colin Whitmore, senior analyst, Aite Group. “It will certainly help protect financial institutions and their customers against sophisticated schemes and attacks.”
