Support GLBA with Flexible Security to Manage all Data Endpoints

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) was enacted to allow commercial and investment banks to consolidate. The law requires financial organizations to securely store personal financial information, including data stored on mobile devices. The organizations must also advise consumers of their policies on sharing of personal financial information. Finally, they must give consumers the option to decline some sharing of personal financial information.

The regulation has resulted in far-reaching consequences for the financial industry. In addition to banks, securities firms, and insurance companies, GLBA affects any organization that services consumer loans, transfers money, prepares tax returns, or provides financial advice. Non-compliance can lead to severe civil and criminal penalties, including fines of up to $100,000 per violation and imprisonment.
