Cybersecurity - Resources
Staying secure in a connected world
Cyber security is no longer just an IT concern; it’s a core part of running a professional, trusted company. FIDI Affiliates handle sensitive personal data every day, from passports and addresses to payment details and client files. This makes our industry a clear target for cyber crime. As threats grow more sophisticated, and as regulations become stricter worldwide, we want to make sure that you have all the necessary know-how and tools to protect your business.
Cyber security is a key pillar of the FIDI-FAIM 3.4 and FIDI-DSP 1.1 Quality Standards, helping you demonstrate that your company meets the highest expectations in data protection, risk management, and operational excellence. On this page, you will find practical guidance and resources to help your company stay secure, resilient, and compliant.
FIDI has published a practical cyber security guide for FIDI Affiliates, which should be your first- go-to resource.

Cyber security is an ongoing process, not a one-time tick box exercise.

By taking proactive steps today, you’re protecting your business, your clients, and the reputation of the global FIDI community.
