Financial institutions are typically fervent supporters of cybersecurity innovation as it is the sector most frequently targeted by attacks and is one of the ones regulators watch closely. Though the procedures preventing access and authentication to the services and systems of financial institutions are guarded by attacks, attacks on these institutions continue to occur. For example, Flagstar Bank recently reported that hackers had accessed their networks without authorization and obtained over 1.5 million client details.
Malware assaults and credential stuffing attacks are the second most frequent attack types after phishing. The risk of push notification attacks follows these closely. Push assaults especially target the push notifications utilized by many authenticators, often known as MFA-prompt bombing. Modern hacker groups like Lapsuss, who recently compromised Okta, Microsoft, Samsung, and other companies, use it frequently.
Additionally, ransomware also remains one of the most common and most used attacks. While not all ransomware attempts are successful, many firms suffer cyber breaches, and roughly a third are breached more than once. The repercussions are severe for many people, including everything from regulatory fines to losing clients to competitors to losing employee and customer data. Credential-related concerns are identified as the primary attack channel in the financial field by several industry assessments. So, most firms experience at least one breach connected to an authentication flaw.

Therefore, all the initiatives and developments in adopting advanced authentication methods are beneficial for expanding the regional market in Europe.
