3 Tips for Better 401k Plan Cybersecurity

With trillions of dollars in assets to safeguard, the retirement services industry is now intensely focused on the issue of cybersecurity.

It’s a challenge because retirement savings plans will likely use and share their data with multiple third parties, including record keepers, third party administrators, asset managers, advisors, and other providers—all of whom may have access to the sensitive participant, beneficiary, and employer information.

Data And Dollars: Securing Retirement Plans In The Online Age

Insisting that vendors have adequate cyber protection is critical, according to Mike Goode, senior vice president of information security and infrastructure.

“A lot of companies don’t even know who their third-party vendors are and what they do,” Goode said.

Goode’s not just talking about advisors’ financial and technical vendors.

“I won’t work with a vendor that does not have a SOC 2 because that means they haven’t even invested enough to ensure that their own organization is secure,” he said.
