The latest Independent Banker magazine shares ways that community banks can fight cyber attacks that are being supercharged by AI and other technological capabilities.

Details: The article in the October Independent Banker says:

  • Community banks should have an incident response plan and run through what they would do in the case of a breach.

  • Plan updates and testing need to be ongoing because attacks, software, and people change.

  • Community bankers can stay up to date on threats by speaking to their peers and learning about evolving risks through ICBA’s Cyber & Data Security page.

Cybersecurity Awareness Month marketing: ICBA offers ready-to-use marketing tools that community bankers can use in October via its Marketing Resource Center, including a customizable news release for Cybersecurity Awareness Month.

More: The October edition of Independent Banker also includes articles on fighting fraud, core conversions, specialty lending, engaging customers through podcasts, and more.
