The WealthStack Podcast: Cybersecurity and Client Protection Beyond the Portfolio with Ken Eiden
As artificial intelligence makes phishing, impersonation and identity theft increasingly sophisticated, cybersecurity risks are extending far beyond financial institutions and into clients’ personal lives. For wealth managers, protecting client assets now means thinking beyond portfolios to safeguard digital identities, personal information and the trust at the center of the advisor-client relationship.
In this episode of The WealthStack Podcast, host Shannon Rosic sits down with Ken Eiden, vice president at Redacted by IDIQ, to explore how AI is reshaping cyber threats, why traditional identity monitoring may not be enough for high-net-worth clients and how advisors can take a more proactive approach to protecting clients and their families.
Key takeaways:

- Why wealthy clients and their families face unique cybersecurity risks
- How technology and human expertise enable proactive identity protection
