At Approach Cyber, we believe cyber security is most effective when it’s collaborative—and fintech is no exception. In a recent episode of The Connector podcast, our very own Dorian Pacquet, Security Strategy Consultant and Fintech Portfolio Lead, broke down the key security challenges—and opportunities—facing the fintech world today.
Security by Design: Building It In, Not Bolting It On
The high-speed, high-risk environment in which fintechs operate has rendered traditional, end-of-pipeline security checks obsolete. “Security must be woven into every stage of the development lifecycle,” Dorian stated. This entails protecting everything without sacrificing agility, including CI/CD pipelines and open-source libraries.
