Cybersecurity Awareness Month: Embracing Cybersecurity and Embedding it in Our Processes

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, a critical time to reinforce the importance of safeguarding sensitive data in today’s digital landscape. At Keys Finance, we view cybersecurity not as a project, but as a core pillar of our operations. We understand the trust you place in us, and we are committed to upholding the highest standards of security.

Cybersecurity Awareness Month: Embracing Cybersecurity and Embedding it in Our Processes | Keys Finance

Our Commitment to Certified Security
Our dedication to security is demonstrated by our established Cyber Essentials Plus certification. This certification is not a one-off achievement; it signifies an ongoing, rigorous commitment to best practices and adherence to stringent security protocols. It assures our partners, insurance brokers and accountancy firms, and our clients that their data is handled with the utmost care, underpinned by a nationally recognized standard.

Enhancing Resilience with New Technology
To continually enhance the protection of the financial services we offer, we have recently completed a significant upgrade to our core financial software. This modernisation effort has delivered a system that is more secure, resilient, and user-friendly.

A key feature of this upgrade is the implementation of Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for all introducer user accounts. This mandatory second layer of defence dramatically reduces the risk of unauthorized access. Furthermore, we leverage the advanced security and data protection features within our Microsoft 365 environment, including robust data loss prevention and sophisticated threat protection, to safeguard all sensitive information across our organisation.

Building Trust Through Proactive Security
At Keys Finance, we are continuously investing in latest security measures. For us, embracing cybersecurity means embedding secure processes into every aspect of our business. It’s how we build trust and ensure the reliability of our services.

We encourage all our partners and customers to join us in observing Cybersecurity Awareness Month by taking steps to strengthen your own digital defences. Stay vigilant, and rest assured that your data is protected by our proactive, certified approach to security.
