cleverDome and Silver Oak Securities to Provide Military-Grade Cybersecurity to Advisors and Representatives

GILBERT, Ariz., January 19, 2021 (Newswire.com) - cleverDome, Inc.™, a Phoenix-based B-Corporation that provides a community-driven solution to protect confidential consumer information by taking that information "Under the Dome"^TM (i.e. secure and off the open Internet), today announced an agreement with Silver Oak Securities, Inc. to move its entire partner and advisor business "Under the Dome," using the unique service provided by cleverDome. Silver Oak Securities is a rapidly growing firm based in Tennessee that has 130 offices across the U.S.

"Some wealth management firms have historically relied upon legacy processes and a technology adoption rate that lagged other industries," said Michael Hallett, CEO, cleverDome. "Recent events have drastically disrupted the market, catapulting advisors into a more remote and work-from-home model of interacting with clients. With face-to-face meetings not possible, advisors adapted quickly to support their clients and develop new relationships. For firms that approach this shift as a way to adopt further innovation rather than just a means to an end, it has opened doors to new opportunities - it has also opened up more vulnerabilities."
