Too Much in the Vault

Within a complex regulatory and threat environment, excess financial sector data affects security, compliance, and sustainability—even when it’s stored in the cloud.

So how are financial institutions managing surplus data?

Produced in partnership with Coleman Parkes, our research shows:

• 90% of financial services providers host at least some data in the cloud. More than half host all their data there.
• 67% say digital transformation has increased the amount of redundant, obsolete, or trivial (ROT) data collected.
• 1 in 6 providers don’t have a specific policy for no-longer-needed data.

And, with 4% of carbon emissions coming from IT use across all industries, overlooking financial services data disposal can hinder providers from achieving net zero.

• Catalysts for moving financial services data to the cloud
