\nglobal cyber intelligence sharing community solely focused on financial

Akamai Technologies,
\nInc. (NASDAQ: AKAM), the world’s most trusted solution to power and protect
\ndigital experiences, joins the Critical Providers Program as founding member to
\nhelp facilitate a two-way dialog with the financial sector about threat
\nintelligence and cybercriminal tactics. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

“As financial services adopt new technologies
\nto evolve the way they operate and serve customers, critical providers have
\nbecome both an important ally to the industry and a target for cybercriminals,”
\nsaid Teresa Walsh, Global Head of
\nIntelligence of FS-ISAC<\/b>. “The Program will ensure our members efficiently
\nreceive accurate and timely security information from their critical providers.
\nIn the event of a large-scale incident, this will empower our members to act
\nand\/or remediate expeditiously, while arming them with the pertinent
\ninformation to brief key stakeholders.”<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We are honored to be a founding member of
\nthis important program and applaud FS-ISAC for taking a leadership role in
\nfacilitating direct communication between critical providers and the financial
\nsector,” said Dr. Boaz Gelbord, Chief
\nSecurity Officer, Akamai<\/b>. “We are looking forward to sharing what we are
\nseeing from the unique vantage point of our globally distributed edge platform,
\nlistening to the members’ experiences, and collaborating on ways to mitigate
\ncurrent and future risks.” <\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

During a large-scale cyber incident or threat
\ninvolving the sector and its critical providers, the Program will leverage
\nFS-ISAC’s dedicated communication channels to expedite the dissemination of
\naccurate information necessary to address the immediate risks and keep the
\nindustry safe.<\/p>\n

Note to the Editor
<\/b>Critical Providers
\nare defined as non-financial organizations providing network infrastructure and
\nservices that, if impacted by an incident, would in real-time interrupt a
\nsignificant amount of core financial services across the sector, in turn
\nimpacting the public’s ability to manage financial transactions.<\/p>\n
