Daniel Schalla from Mattermost joins PayPod to discuss how financial institutions can better prepare for and respond to cybersecurity incidents. With tools designed for secure collaboration and workflow management, Mattermost helps companies meet regulatory demands while ensuring that they remain in control of their data.

While any business is a potential target for hackers, critical infrastructure organizations — including defense, healthcare, energy, utilities, and financial services companies — are perhaps most at risk due to their financial resources. According to the U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security, attacks on critical infrastructure organizations increased 30% in 2023.

With cyberattacks becoming more frequent —and the associated impacts becoming increasingly difficult to absorb — it’s more important than ever for critical infrastructure organizations to invest in cyber resilience.

Mattermost will create an artificial intelligence-ready workflow platform for Microsoft’s Azure Secret and Top Secret cloud environments, an initiative that Corey Hulen, Mattermost Federal CEO, described as advancing the company’s goal of providing new tools to address rising data security challenges.

“The material rise in geopolitical instability and the dramatic increase in global cyber threats, including adversarial use of AI and digital attack vectors, requires rapid augmentation of capabilities within air-gapped environments to more rapidly detect, analyze and defend against new categories of threats,” he said.
