LOUISVILLE, Ky.–Ryan McMillan, director of Technology Solutions with Emergifi, offered insights on “Cybersecurity for Credit Unions” at the Kentucky Directors’ College hosted by the National Association of State Credit Union Supervisors (NASCUS) here.
The event is designed to present an opportunity for credit union leaders to hear first-hand from state regulators, and learn about BSA requirements, cybersecurity, succession planning, interest rate risk, and national issues, reported Emergifi, a unit of Corporate Central Credit Union.
“Cybersecurity is an ever-changing concern,” said McMillan. “Today's threat landscape challenges credit unions more than ever to stay updated with relevant information about cybersecurity trends and tools that can thwart a potential attack.”
“Keeping members data safe is top priority for our credit union clients,” McMillan continued. “I was happy to be able to educate members of the Kentucky Credit Union League about Emergifi’s cloud-based approach. Utilizing modern tools and educating credit union staff adds more layers to existing defenses and helps eliminate the risks of legacy on-premise systems.”
The one-day session was held both in-person and virtually. Other presenters included Commissioner Charles Vice from the Kentucky Department of Financial Institutions; Debbie Painter, president of the Kentucky league; David Redd, Partner at Reed & Jolly, LLC, and Kevin Chiappetta, president of QuantyPhi.
