What We Assess in CSP

Non-compliance with SWIFT CSP can lead to serious consequences including restricted network access, reputational damage, and regulatory penalties.
Every SWIFT customer is required to submit an annual attestation, and that submission must reflect an accurate, validated security posture.

Common issues we uncover:
✔ Incomplete or outdated system documentation
✔ Missing audit logs or insecure configurations
✔ Unsegmented SWIFT infrastructure
✔ Weak monitoring of SWIFT-specific traffic
✔ Failure to meet independent assessment standards

Why SWIFT CSP Compliance Matters

Step 1: Pre-Assessment Review
We analyze your current environment and previous attestations.

Step 2: Control Validation
We assess your implementation of mandatory and advisory controls as per SWIFT CSP.

Step 3: Evidence Review
We collect and review documentation and system settings for attestation readiness.

Step 4: Risk Analysis and Scoring
We assign maturity levels, identify non-conformities, and map risks to CSP categories.

Step 5: Final Reporting and Advisory
We deliver a full compliance report, prioritized remediation roadmap, and executive briefing.
