Project Overview
A rapidly expanding Financial Technology (FinTech) startup was preparing for a major product launch but faced a critical hurdle: meeting rigorous regulatory compliance standards (SOC 2 and PCI-DSS) within a tight deadline. Handling sensitive consumer financial data meant that a standard IT setup was insufficient; they required a fortress-like infrastructure to satisfy both auditors and investors.
Recognizing the high stakes, SERVEITPRO was brought in to architect a ground-up security ecosystem. The goal was to balance friction-less developer velocity with banking-grade security controls, ensuring the firm could scale rapidly without exposing client assets to cyber threats.
What we did
- Zero-Trust Architecture: Designed a "never trust, always verify" network model where every access request is authenticated, regardless of origin.
- 24/7 Threat Hunting: Deployed advanced Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents to identify and neutralize ransomware attempts in real-time.
- Identity Management: Implemented strict Conditional Access policies and hardware-based Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to prevent account takeovers.
- Compliance Hardening: Configured infrastructure to meet specific regulatory frameworks, including encrypted audit logs and data sovereignty controls.
- Device Control (MDM): Enrolled all company laptops in Mobile Device Management to allow for immediate remote wipes if a device is lost or stolen.
- Data Loss Prevention (DLP): Set up automated rules to block sensitive financial data (like credit card numbers) from being shared externally.
