Industry Overview
Key metrics and compliance landscape.
Key Challenges
Critical security and compliance threats facing your industry.
Wire Fraud in Real Estate Closings
Real estate wire fraud (BEC attacks) causes $300M+ annual losses. Attackers monitor real estate agent email for 2-4 weeks before closing, identify high-value transactions ($500K+), then spoof title company emails with fraudulent wiring instructions 24-48 hours before closing. Average loss: $300K+. Funds transferred overseas within hours are unrecoverable.
Agent BYOD Security
Real estate agents use personal smartphones and tablets for MLS access, client data, and transaction documents. One compromised personal device exposes buyer SSNs, financial data, and transaction details for 100+ clients. No Mobile Device Management (MDM), agents forward emails to personal Gmail, MLS credentials saved in unencrypted browsers, and transaction documents stored in personal Dropbox.
Client Data Protection
Real estate transactions involve buyer/seller SSNs, bank account numbers, credit reports, and pre-approval letters—all sent via unencrypted email or stored in unsecured CRM systems. One email account breach exposes 100+ clients' PII. Unencrypted email with SSNs/bank info in plaintext, CRM systems with weak passwords and no MFA, shared email logins across multiple agents, and no data retention policy.
MLS & Transaction Platform Security
Multiple Listing Service (MLS) credentials and transaction platforms (Dotloop, DocuSign, SkySlope) are high-value targets. Compromised MLS account provides access to all listings, client data, and agent contact information. Weak MLS passwords reused across platforms, no MFA on transaction platforms, shared accounts among multiple agents, and no vendor security audits.
Regulatory Landscape
Mandatory and recommended frameworks with enforcement context.
Audit: Complaint-triggered or E&O insurance audit
Audit: Financial institution partner audit
