Retail

The rise of e-commerce has provided retailers the ability to attract new business, expand footprints and grow their brands. These opportunities however, have made them more vulnerable to cyberattacks.

With the focus on accelerating digitization (e.g., e-commerce, direct-to-consumer) retailers face unique cyber risks. A theft of customer data can destroy trust, brands and revenue streams almost overnight and lead to heavy fines under GDPR and other regulations.

Attack surfaces are proliferating as retailers rely more on the cloud and connected devices such as security cameras and inventory tracking tools—particularly if they’re still using legacy systems with outdated security features. Threats can appear throughout the supply chain and retailers must secure their endpoints and customer data regardless of location—whether on-premises or in the cloud.
