We hope this white paper will impart actionable best practices and identify available resources in the cybersecurity space,” said Edward Marshall, Director, Global Family Office Group, Citi Private Bank, who authored the report.
The white paper outlines the actively evolving unique threat of cybercrime facing Family Offices and offers tips and best practices to combat attempted cyber breaches.
“The Global Family Office team is very committed to serving the needs of the Family Office sector as a key component of our growth strategy. We view this white paper as an opportunity to start conversations with our Family Office clients about the need for increased cyber protection and protocols. Additionally, we will continue the conversation at our Family Office Leadership Program with internal and external information security experts,” said Bill Woodson, North American Family Office Group Head, Citi Private Bank.
