In the past, there have been a number of successful cybersecurity attacks against SWIFT member financial institutions via SWIFT networks, and resulted in funds transfer fraud. To avoid this embarrassment to happen again in the future, and enhance the cybersecurity of SWIFT institutions, mandatory security controls were issued and each member is required to do self-assessment for compliance every year. Advisory controls were also developed as best practices to re-enforce security and safeguard all SWIFT members’ local networks.
The SWIFT customer security controls framework has 3 objectives:

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), introduced in May 2018, tightens Europe’s already strict laws about what companies can do with people’s data. It gives you more control over how your data is collected and used and forces companies to justify everything they do with it. While GDPR is European Union legislation, it has huge effect on businesses outside the EU, including the USA; because some non-EU companies collect and use European citizens’ data, and also have companies based in EU, for services and processing data).
GDPR gives organizations guidelines on what they can and can’t do with personal data and also gives users more clarity over the kind of data being used and how companies will use it. Any data that can identify a person, like name, phone number, IP address, location, etc. is considered personal data.
For companies, non-compliance to GDPR leads to heavy fines up to $24 million or 4% of annual turnover.
Information security management and governance is one of the requirements of GDPR. Also many data protection laws and regulations include GDPR.
By probing networks, applications, databases, systems, and security systems for security vulnerabilities and exploiting them, and using our state-of-art threat detection and response tools, we can help satisfy an important GDPR requirement (Report on information security breach).
Synax team will help in the journey to GDPR compliance by:

Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a global standard that applies to any entities that store, process or transmit payment card (credit or debit cards) data and related sensitive authentication data.
These organizations are merchants, processors, acquirers, issuers, and service providers. Organizations are required to perform PCI DSS assessment, at least annually.
They are technical and operational requirements designed to help organizations protect their customers’ card data against malicious use. There are also requirements for software developers and devices on which those applications run.
A failure to meet the required compliance standard results in heavy fines or serious damage to organization’s reputation and brand.
We understand that it is not an easy undertaking for organizations to achieve PCI DSS compliance without investing a lot in technologies, time and expertise.
