In this episode of the Alldus Podcast’s cybersecurity series, Paul Collins, Regional Information Security Officer for Europe at U.S. Bank, joins host Mark Kelly to explore the fast-changing threats facing financial services and payments organisations.
Drawing on more than 35 years’ experience in technology and information security, Paul discusses how AI is changing the threat landscape, why supplier risk demands greater attention and how training, vigilance and collaboration can help organisations strengthen their resilience.
He also shares insights into balancing robust security with a smooth customer experience and explains why effective cybersecurity depends on people, processes and partnerships, not technology alone.
