The Forum of Cooperative Bank Leaders, organized by the Polish Bank Association, is one of the most important events in the calendar of the cooperative banking sector in Poland. This year’s edition, which took place under specific market conditions, was particularly important for us. We had the pleasure of presenting at the forum together with the Cooperative Bank of Brodnica (BS Brodnica) the oldest bank in Poland and a leader in many industry rankings.

Special Report for Participants

With FLBS participants in mind, we have prepared a special report that analyzes the impact of the new DORA and NIS2 regulations on the banking sector. The report answers key questions such as:

• What innovations are DORA and NIS2 bringing to digital resilience?

• What are the differences between DORA and NIS2 and how will they affect your organization?

• What are the penalties for not complying with DORA and NIS2?

• Who in the organization will be responsible for DORA and NIS2 compliance?

• Why should you be prepared for these changes now?

  
  

What are the sanctions for non compliance with DORA and NIS2

Secfense implementation at BS Brodnica: A case study

Why did BS Brodnica opt for strong authentication?

Strong authentication (MFA) is a mechanism that introduces an additional layer of security, effectively protecting accounts from unauthorized access. At BS Brodnica, the main reasons for implementing this mechanism were:

• Increase the security level of protected resources.

• Protect user accounts from phishing attacks.

• Reducing the risk of password leaks.

• Compliance with security regulations and standards, such as Rek.D, KNF, GDPR, DORA.

Choosing Secfense as a technology partner

BS Brodnica decided to implement the Secfense solution because of its scalability, ease of integration, and many other features that make it one of the most comprehensive and flexible solutions on the market.

Implementation process

The implementation of Secfense’s User Access Security Broker at BS Brodnica proceeded in several stages, from needs analysis to solution testing to production deployment. At every stage, the bank benefited from the support of the Secfense team, which allowed the project to be implemented efficiently and effectively.

Recommendations for other banks

BS Brodnica stresses that the key elements in choosing an authentication system are the speed of implementation and the standard of the solution. By using the Secfense broker, the bank was able to secure a variety of applications and systems in a short period of time, which is invaluable in a rapidly changing IT environment.

Make an appointment for demo and testing

If you are interested in implementing the Secfense solution in your organization, we invite you to schedule a demo, which usually takes 15 minutes. We also offer tests of our solution, which usually last 7 days.

Summary

The Cooperative Bank Leaders Forum 2023 was not only an opportunity for us to present our solutions, but also to have a deep discussion about the future of the sector. We would like to thank all participants for their participation and invite them to continue working with us.
