International Banking Security Association

Connecting global leaders in security

Since 1983, IBSA has provided a global platform for banking security professionals to strengthen and grow their strategy and expertise, helping ensure that financial institutions and their customers are protected.

From Singapore to Switzerland, members are just a phone call away who can share best practices, benchmark operations, and aid in inves-tigations and fund recovery. Twice per year, security leaders from around the world gather at one of our member organizations to share expertise, identify trends and emerging risks, and strengthen our network to prepare for the risks of the future. Throughout the year, members engage and share expertise through our webinars, newsletters, and online platform.

together we protect better

“Security can never be an afterthought.

The global nature of organized crime and the risks it poses to our organisations makes collaboration with multi-disciplinary and like-minded experts essential. As cybercrimes transcend time and physical proximity, our ability to keep abreast of cross border developments is vital.

We are fortunate that the trusted IBSA network offers us this platform.”
