What BFSI clients call us for.

GLBA & FFIEC compliance

Safeguards Rule, FFIEC CAT, NYDFS Part 500. Gap analysis, remediation, examiner liaison.

Branch + multi-site connectivity

SD-WAN across branches and remote sites with sub-100ms latency.

Fraud + transaction monitoring

SIEM for transaction patterns, geo anomalies, BIN-level alerts.

What is at risk

In financial services, every weakness has a number attached to it.

Banks, NBFCs, and insurers hold money and the data that moves it, which makes them a permanent target for organized, well-funded attackers. A single successful intrusion can drain accounts, expose a customer base, and put you in front of your regulator and the press in the same week. The cost is rarely just the loss itself.

  • Transaction fraud - account takeover, payment-channel abuse, and social-engineering scams that move real money out before anyone notices.
  • Customer financial data - account numbers, KYC documents, and credit data that fuel identity theft and command a high price on the market.
  • Core-banking and branch operations - ransomware or an outage that freezes transactions, locks out branches, and stops customers from accessing their own money.
  • Regulatory penalties - breaches and control failures can trigger fines, mandatory disclosures, and intensified examiner scrutiny for years.
  • Trust and reputation - a publicized breach erodes the one thing a financial institution sells, and depositors and policyholders are quick to leave.

How we secure financial services

A control program built to pass exams and stop real fraud.

We work the way your regulators expect and the way attackers actually operate - so the same program that satisfies an examiner also holds up against a live fraud attempt.

Fraud and transaction monitoring

A SIEM and analytics layer tuned for your transaction patterns - geo and velocity anomalies, BIN-level alerts, and account-takeover signatures surfaced before the money leaves.

Core and branch security

Segmentation between core systems, branch networks, and back office, hardened endpoints, and resilient connectivity so a compromise in one place cannot cascade into all of them.

Identity and privileged access

MFA everywhere, least-privilege for staff and third parties, and tight control plus full logging on the privileged accounts that touch core banking and customer data.

Customer-data protection

Encryption, data-loss monitoring, and access controls around KYC, account, and policy data - mapped to the data-protection rules that apply to you.

Exam and audit readiness

Gap analysis against your regulatory framework, remediation, evidence packs, and examiner liaison so audit week is a formality, not a scramble.

Incident response and recovery

Tested backups, a rehearsed runbook, and senior responders on call - because regulators judge you on how fast and cleanly you detect, contain, and report.

Branch and network modernization

Secure branch networking for banks, NBFCs, and insurers.

A financial institution is only as dependable as the network connecting its branches, ATMs, and data centre. We design and manage branch network connectivity that stays up through business hours, meets regulator expectations for segmentation and resilience, and never becomes the soft entry point an attacker uses to reach core banking. From a single new branch to a multi-hundred-site rollout, the banking network solution is built secure from the first switch - not retrofitted after an audit finding.

  • Branch connectivity and modernization - SD-WAN over broadband, leased line, and MPLS with automatic failover, replacing brittle single-link setups so a branch never goes dark mid-transaction.
  • Network segmentation - core banking, branch LAN, ATM, and guest Wi-Fi kept on separate segments, so a compromise at one branch cannot reach the core.
  • Managed switching and secure Wi-Fi - hardened switches, 802.1X access control, and separated staff and customer wireless with rogue-access-point detection.
  • Round-the-clock monitoring - visibility on link health, latency, and anomalies across every site, with alerting before a branch manager calls to say the line is down.
  • Compliance-aligned design - branch and banking network architecture mapped to RBI, your local regulator, and PCI-DSS network-segmentation requirements.

How an engagement works

From posture assessment to a control program examiners trust.

01

Assess

We map your core systems, branches, data flows, and existing controls, then measure them against your regulatory framework and against how attackers target institutions like yours.

02

Prioritize

A remediation roadmap sequenced by fraud and breach impact and by examiner expectations, scoped to a budget and timeline your board will sign off on.

03

Implement

We deploy segmentation, monitoring, identity controls, and fraud analytics with change windows and rollback plans that respect transaction uptime.

04

Sustain

Ongoing monitoring, periodic testing, evidence upkeep, and exam support so the posture stays audit-ready between examinations instead of decaying.

Financial-services security FAQ

We already pass our audits. Why do we need more?
Passing an audit means you met a baseline on the day you were checked. It does not mean you would survive a determined fraud attempt or a ransomware hit between audits. We build a program that stays strong continuously and that detects and contains real attacks, so the audit result reflects genuine resilience rather than point-in-time paperwork.
Can you reduce transaction fraud without blocking legitimate customers?
Yes - that balance is the whole point. We tune monitoring to your real transaction patterns so the alerts that fire are the ones worth investigating, and we layer step-up authentication on high-risk actions rather than friction on everything. The goal is to catch fraud while keeping good customers moving.
How do you handle security across many branches and legacy core systems?
We segment so a problem at one branch or in one legacy system cannot reach the rest, harden and monitor the connections between them, and wrap older core systems that cannot be replaced in compensating controls. You get modern protection without ripping out infrastructure you depend on.
Will you help us prepare for a regulatory examination?
Yes. We run a gap analysis against your framework, remediate what is missing, assemble the evidence examiners ask for, and can sit alongside you as liaison during the exam itself. Our aim is a posture that is exam-ready year-round.
What happens during a breach or fraud incident?
Retainer clients reach a senior responder fast. We contain the incident, preserve evidence, coordinate with your fraud and legal teams, help stop fraudulent transfers, and support the regulator notifications you are obligated to make on their timelines. The preparation we do beforehand is what keeps a bad day from becoming a regulatory and reputational crisis.
Do you provide managed IT and security services for BFSI?
Yes. BFSI managed services are a core part of what we do - managed security monitoring, a managed SOC, patching and hardening, branch network management, and compliance upkeep, delivered as an ongoing service rather than a one-off project. You get a named team that knows your environment and keeps your posture audit-ready between examinations, priced to a bank, NBFC, or insurer of your size.
Can you modernize and secure our bank branch network?
Yes. We design and manage banking network solutions across branches - SD-WAN connectivity with automatic failover, segmentation between core banking, branch LAN, ATM, and guest Wi-Fi, hardened switching and secure wireless, and round-the-clock monitoring. The network is built to the segmentation and resilience standards your regulator and PCI-DSS expect, whether you are opening one branch or modernizing a few hundred.
How do you help NBFCs meet RBI cyber-resilience expectations?
We map your controls against the RBI cyber-resilience and IT-governance directions that apply to NBFCs, run the VAPT and gap analysis they expect, remediate what is missing, and assemble the evidence and reporting. The result is a demonstrable, examiner-ready cyber-resilience posture rather than a scramble when the direction is enforced.
