Credit unions commonly use third-party partners to deliver better services and functionality to members. The attack surface expands as a result of the numerous third-party relationships that exist and enables cyber criminals&#8217; opportunities to access a credit union&#8217;s network. Managing third-party risk is a significant concern and involves effective third-party and data governance and technical solutions that securely support the flow of personal and financial data.\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Credit Union Times identifies other areas which expand a credit union\u2019s attack surface, including, \u201cthe critical infrastructure supporting the clearing, settling, or recording of payments, securities, derivatives, and other important financial transactions.\u201d They also identify that there is, \u201ca payments revolution taking place supporting real-time payments for person-to-person, business-to-consumer and business-to-business payments. An unintended consequence of these payment advancements is fraud. Faster payments create faster fraud.\u201d They continue to explain, \u201cAs the popularity of these new payment services grows, so does the criminal activity that attempts to breach networks and scam credit union members.
