Defending Financial Services When Trust Is the Attack Vector

Attackers aren't breaking in; they're building legitimacy. The top malware from late 2025 was delivered via social engineering, exploiting trust at every stage.

For financial institutions, where trust underpins every transaction and customer relationship, these tactics carry outsized risk. Threat actors use legitimate-looking ads, signed software, and system utilities to bypass the layered defenses financial services teams have spent years building.

Join us for proven strategies to counter these trends and learn how collective intelligence and agentic AI enable earlier, shared defense across the sector.

Key Takeaways:

• Understand the shift toward trust-based attacks where threat actors use legitimate ads, signed software, and system utilities to bypass financial institutions' defenses.

• Learn why workflows designed to detect explicit malice fail against threats built to appear genuine.

• Gain actionable recommendations for proactive defense and see how collective intelligence and agentic AI enable shared, real-time protection across the sector.
