Webinar: Fintech at SaaS speed – navigating the scale and security challenge
Mobile app protection should not require a choice between getting it done fast and getting it done right.
Financial institutions now have a range of mobile apps to support both customers and remote employees across lines of business and products. Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) has gone from the cutting edge to the norm, but that doesn’t mean teething troubles don’t emerge.
Because these apps provide 24×7 access to services and information, they present scalability and security challenges. But does one need to be sacrificed for the other? Absolutely not.
Join FinTech Futures’ free webinar, Fintech at SaaS speed: navigating the scale and security challenge, to learn about the latest trends and techniques in SaaS security, the importance of mobile apps in the financial services ecosystem, and how to implement a successful app protection strategy.
