Finance Industry - Quo Vadis? 31.01.2008 Joerg Resch: Just as a reminder: A bank´s business model usually is, to take risks and to get paid for doing so. If a bank takes the role to pay for risks taken, the business model is broken and this will let such an institution disappear from the market. IT infrastructures have to be built in a way that they flexibly support the business model. Therefore, a bank´s IT-infrastructure should be capable of making risks transparent and manageable. External risks and internal ones. The case of Société Générale shows, how vulnerable financial institutions are against inadequate internal oversight caused by a missing end-to-end view on identities. Read the article

But what sense would all that make, if authorizations and priviliges are not provisioned or, more important, de-provisioned in time, and if access to internal applications is not secured with strong authentication and even biometric identification? If banks don't leave the doors of their bullet-proof safes open - why do they leave access to applications open, where billions of Euros can be moved to places where they are not supposed to be moved to?
