New technologies have provided important benefits to financial institutions and their customers.  Coincidentally, they have exposed both the institutions and customers to a variety of new risks. Consequently it is important that financial institutions identify and carefully manage technology and information security risks, implementing appropriate policies, practices and controls. 

Computing systems and data must be protected from hackers and even insiders. The integrity and availability of data must be maintained, even in the event of a disaster. Protection of customer information is now of the utmost importance.

Abound helps financial institutions manage these risks in two ways, with two major services in the technology practices area: Information Technology and Security Audits; and Network Penetration Test and Vulnerability Assessments (with Social Engineering Analysis).
