Financial services sites — accountants, advisors, lenders — handle information that makes them a natural, attractive target for attackers.
Elevated Security Baseline
Beyond standard SSL, a web application firewall, regular malware scanning, and strict access controls should be treated as baseline requirements, not optional extras.
Regulatory Awareness
Depending on the specific financial service offered, industry-specific regulations may dictate particular data handling, retention, or disclosure requirements.
Client Portal Security
If clients access sensitive financial documents or account information through the site, that portal deserves security attention proportional to what a bank's online presence would require.
Trust Signals Matter Enormously
Visible, credible security signals (proper SSL, professional design, clear privacy commitments) directly affect whether a hesitant prospect trusts you with their finances.
