Advanced Cyber Security for Fintech UK: Protect Your Assets and Compliance

With 70% of UK businesses identifying cyber attacks in the past year, Gridisys provides the specialized AI-driven SOC and development security required to navigate the complex FCA, PSD2, and Open Banking landscapes.

Meeting FCA and PSD2 Security Requirements

Navigating the regulatory requirements set by the FCA requires more than just standard IT support; it demands a robust, auditable infrastructure. Fintech firms must adhere to strict guidelines under PS21/3, focusing on operational resilience and securing open banking APIs. At Gridisys, we integrate security into your app development lifecycle, ensuring that data protection isn't an afterthought but a foundational element of your platform. By implementing comprehensive GDPR compliance frameworks and advanced monitoring, we help you pass investor due diligence audits with ease.

  • Automated compliance mapping for FCA PS21/3 standards.
  • Secure API architecture for Open Banking integration.
  • End-to-end encryption protocols for sensitive financial data.
  • Continuous vulnerability scanning of fintech applications.
  • Regulatory reporting assistance for ICO and FCA submissions.

Managed AI SOC: Proactive Defense Against Financial Threats

The threat landscape for UK fintech is dominated by sophisticated actors like LockBit and Cl0p, who target cloud environments and supply chain vulnerabilities. Our managed SOC utilizes AI to identify anomalies in real-time, far faster than traditional reactive models. By monitoring your cloud estate 24/7, we detect unauthorized lateral movement and suspicious logins before they escalate into data breaches. Whether you operate on Azure or AWS, our team provides the oversight necessary to defend your firm against ransomware and extortion attempts that specifically target financial service providers.

  • AI-driven threat detection for rapid incident response.
  • 24/7 security monitoring tailored to financial service workflows.
  • Zero-trust architecture implementation for cloud environments.
  • Protection against targeted UK ransomware threats.
  • Executive-level security reporting for board and investor transparency.

Cloud Identity and Access Governance

Identity is the new perimeter in the age of remote work and cloud-native fintech. Investors look for strict identity controls during funding rounds to ensure that access to production environments is managed, monitored, and immutable. We specialize in configuring Microsoft Entra security to provide granular access control and multi-factor authentication (MFA) that prevents credential-based attacks. By centralizing identity management, we simplify the audit process, allowing your firm to prove that only authorized personnel have access to the production ledger and customer PI, ensuring your business stays compliant with UK cyber insurance requirements.

  • Granular role-based access control (RBAC) setup.
  • Hardware-backed MFA integration for high-privilege accounts.
  • Automated lifecycle management for user identities.
  • Continuous monitoring of privileged access sessions.

Bespoke Development with Security by Design

When building financial applications, developers often face a trade-off between speed-to-market and security. Gridisys removes this friction by embedding security into our app development for small business workflows. Our developers understand the nuances of secure coding practices, ensuring that your software is resilient against OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities. By building with a 'Security by Design' philosophy, we help you avoid expensive post-launch patches and regulatory penalties, ensuring your product is ready for the rigorous technical due diligence performed by VC firms and financial institutional partners.

  • Secure coding standards for fintech platforms.
  • Integration of security testing into CI/CD pipelines.
  • Protection against SQL injection and cross-site scripting.
  • Architecture reviews for regulatory compliance.
