Hot Take:

Looks like Europe’s financial titans are getting schooled in the art of cyber-defense, and spoiler alert: they’re flunking hard.

Maybe next time they’ll learn that all that glitters in a third-party deal isn’t gold, but rather a potential data leak dressed in a business suit!

  • 100% of Europe’s top financial services experienced supplier-related breaches last year.
  • Only 26% of companies scored an ‘A’ in cybersecurity resilience.
  • Scandinavian companies are leading the way in security, with France trailing behind.
