The financial sector is one of the most vulnerable to cyberattacks. As technology advances, cybercriminals are using increasingly sophisticated methods, requiring financial institutions to continuously improve their security systems. In 2025, companies will be required to take a rigorous approach to cybersecurity and digital risk management, influenced by existing regulations such as NIS2 and DORA.

One of the key trends is the use of artificial intelligence (AI) by both cybercriminals and defenders. AI enables the automation of attacks, the creation of more realistic phishing scams, and deepfakes that are harder to detect. On the other hand, AI helps in the automatic analysis of data and threat management, which is becoming an important element in protecting IT systems. It is important to implement IoT protection strategies, including strong authentication and encryption mechanisms.

Cloud security is also an important aspect. Cloud computing is a key element of IT infrastructure but creates new attack vectors. The complexity of cloud environments, configuration errors, and malware can lead to serious incidents. Advanced data protection measures in the cloud should be applied, and regular security audits should be conducted. It is necessary to invest in advanced technologies, strengthen regulatory compliance, implement comprehensive training programs, and create appropriate incident response plans to improve resilience to cyber threats.

Cyber resilience requires flexibility and investment in modern technologies. Companies must not only respond to current threats but also anticipate and prepare for those that will arise in the future. Regular penetration testing and IT audits are crucial, allowing for the identification of security vulnerabilities and the prevention of cyberattacks. Implementing basic frameworks such as GDPR, NIS2 and DORA may not be enough on their own.
