Cybersecurity solutions for financial services
Most current privacy regulations require state-of-the-art encryption when it comes to sensitive data protection. The scope of sensitive data has extended from credit cards and account numbers to personally identifiable information, behavioural analytics, and OLTP workload.
We have built secure systems for both traditional banking and modern fintech. Our solutions allow to comply with regulations such as the GDPR, CCPA, CPRA, SOX, NIST and protect the data without risking the system's usability.
Cybersecurity challenges in finance
Digital transformation and unsiloing
Insiders and external adversaries frequently target fintech systems for financial gain.
Moving to public cloud
Regulations and certifications can't guarantee that typical security mistakes like "misconfigured" cloud servers won't happen.
Compliance demands and higher stakes
The regulatory landscape is changing, and compliance demands are increasing (PCI DSS v3.2, PSD2, CBC). Besides, users expect exceptional features and interoperability without compromising security.
Wider open ecosystem
Financial companies of all sizes join forces to promote infrastructural growth in the global digital economy, so the cost of reputational harm is higher than ever.
Modern solutions for financial services
Encryption closer to data
Systems that use application level encryption or end-to-end encryption combined with pseudonymisation or anonymisation of data.

Zero Trust
Systems that verify access on every transaction based on the security-relevant context of this transaction.
Strong application security
Systems that use multi-layered access control and security measures that span across the whole data lifecycle.
