Financial Services
A financial services firm loses money faster than any other business in the moment of an incident. One hour of online banking downtime is tens of thousands of customers with interrupted transactions, a flooded call center, and inevitable regulator complaints. A card data breach kicks off costly notifications, payment scheme penalties, and reputational damage that lingers for years. We design security for financial services around targeted attack groups specializing in banking perimeter, not against generic threats.
Sector specific challenges
Two way regulatory pressure
Central bank requirements intersect with PCI DSS for card processing and data protection law obligations. Closing all of them in parallel without overoptimization is a craft of its own, and we have ready integrated compliance models for banks and payment service providers.
Online banking attacks and anti fraud
Modern banking trojans bypass most standard controls, so the financial sector needs adaptive anti fraud with behavioral analytics rather than just protection. We help integrate such systems and tune rules against real fraud patterns instead of vendor defaults.
Response time measured in minutes
In financial services the SLA on detection and containment is measured in minutes, not hours. A standard corporate SOC will not keep up. We build dedicated processes with on duty teams and playbooks tuned for banking scenarios.
Our approach
For financial services we offer packaged engagements that close regulatory readiness and operational security end to end. We start with an integrated threat model that captures your processes and landscape. Then we build the technical contour with online banking protection, processing segmentation, anti fraud, and around the clock monitoring of critical channels. In parallel we run a compliance track with audit readiness, PCI DSS work, and updates to documentation against current regulator orders.

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to prepare a bank for a regulator audit?
+
Depends on size and current state. For a mid size institution, an audit readiness project usually runs three to five months and lands between three hundred and seven hundred thousand dollars in 2026 conditions, including assessment, documentation refresh, technical hardening, and audit support.
How do we verify your SOC can handle banking attacks?
+
We offer a pilot period during which you observe real incident handling and assess the quality of response. We also run joint exercises with simulated targeted attacks on your banking channels.
Do you work with smaller financial firms?
+
Yes, we have packages tailored for smaller financial firms and fintech startups, scaled to their size and budget profile.
