Financial Sector Security
Banking-grade assurance: PCI DSS, SWIFT CSP, core banking, and payments, in the language your regulator accepts.
What it is.
When the central bank writes, the board wants one thing: a defensible answer. NCA's financial sector practice is built around producing that answer, for the core, the channels, the card estate, and the messaging rails that connect you to the world.
We work inside the frameworks your supervisors and counterparties cite, so every engagement doubles as audit evidence. Findings arrive mapped to the control language your examiners use, not to a vendor's severity scale.
Compliance & attestation
- PCI DSS readiness and remediation
- SWIFT CSP assessment and attestation support
- Central bank framework liaison
Platform assurance
- Core banking security reviews
- Mobile money & fintech platform security
- ATM and card payment security
Fraud & risk
- Anti-fraud advisory and control design
- Transaction monitoring review
- Fraud operations enablement
What you get.
Regulator-ready evidence
Findings and remediation records mapped to the framework your supervisor examines against.
Attestation you can sign
Independent assessment so the statement you file to SWIFT or the PCI council is true.
A board-level risk picture
Exposure quantified in operational and financial terms, not CVE counts.
Controls that survive audit
Designs agreed with your first and second line, documented for the third.
How we take a bank from exposure to attestation.
Map
Your obligations across PCI, SWIFT CSP, and central bank directives consolidated into one control baseline.
Assess
Gap assessment and technical testing against that baseline, from the core outward.
Remediate
Two remediation sprints: fast configuration wins first, structural changes second.
Evidence
Every control backed by collected, reviewable evidence before any statement is signed.
Attest & maintain
Attestation support, then a maintenance calendar so next year is a review, not a rescue.
Who it's for.
- Commercial banks preparing for supervisory reviews or SWIFT attestation
- Mobile money operators and fintechs seeking bank partnerships
- Card issuers and acquirers with PCI DSS obligations
- Microfinance institutions professionalizing their security posture
