FTA: What is the one thing every adviser will be doing differently in five year’s time when it comes to cybersecurity?
CG: It is a difficult question because each adviser – really each person – today is starting from a different place.
Some already may use two-factor authentication whereas others may not. It’s also true that in five years' time, maybe something better or more secure than two-factor authentication will have been invented.
One prediction we can make is this: every adviser will be more familiar with block chains five years from now than they are today.
Certain block chains have interesting security characteristics and other properties.
