The fintech industry is a primary target for cybercriminals. Payment processing systems, customer financial data, and transaction integrity are under constant attack. Regulatory compliance isn't optional—it's existential.

Rezolute specializes in protecting fintech operations with PCI DSS compliance, payment security, and threat defense tailored to the financial technology industry.

TOP THREATS TO FINTECH

What's Targeting Your Industry

Credential Theft & Account Takeover

Attackers target customer and employee credentials to gain unauthorized access to payment systems and customer accounts. Stolen credentials lead to fraudulent transactions and data exfiltration.

Cardholder Data Breaches

Attacks specifically targeting payment card data storage and transmission. A single breach can compromise millions of card records, leading to massive fines, reputation damage, and customer loss.

API & Web Application Exploits

Fintech heavily relies on APIs for payment processing and integrations. OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities in APIs can expose sensitive data and allow unauthorized payment initiation.

Ransomware Attacks

Attackers encrypt payment systems and threaten data release. Ransomware can shut down financial operations entirely, costing millions in downtime and regulatory penalties.

Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) Attacks

Interception of payment transactions during transmission. Network-level attacks can expose payment data in transit between customer, fintech platform, and payment processors.

Insider Threats & Fraud

Employees or contractors with access to payment systems can abuse privileges or become victims of social engineering. Internal threats are difficult to detect but have high impact.

COMPLIANCE & REGULATORY LANDSCAPE

Standards You Must Achieve

PCI DSS
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard—mandatory for anyone processing, storing, or transmitting card data.
Network segmentation & access control
Encryption of cardholder data
Vulnerability management

EU & international data protection regulations for customer personal data handling and cross-border transfers.
Data minimization & storage limits
User consent & transparency
Data breach notification (72 hours)
Privacy impact assessments
SOX & Financial Regs
Sarbanes-Oxley and financial sector regulations requiring robust internal controls and transaction integrity.
Financial data integrity controls
Audit trail & logging
Access controls & segregation of duties
Incident response planning
