Infrastructure Built for Financial Services
FinTech companies operate under intense scrutiny. Regulators demand compliance. Customers demand security. Partners demand audits. One breach can end your business. One compliance failure can block your banking partnerships. Yet you still need to ship features fast and scale to meet demand.
Generic DevOps approaches don't work for FinTech. You need infrastructure designed from the ground up for regulatory compliance, data protection, and audit readiness—without sacrificing developer velocity or operational efficiency.
We've helped 30+ FinTech companies—payment processors, neobanks, lending platforms, wealth management apps—build infrastructure that passes audits, protects customer data, and enables rapid innovation. From security hardening to compliance automation to 24x7 support, we understand what it takes to run financial infrastructure at scale.
FinTech Infrastructure Challenges
The unique requirements that make financial services infrastructure different from typical tech companies.
Regulatory Compliance
PCI-DSS, SOC 2, SOX, GDPR, state money transmitter laws, banking regulations—each with specific technical requirements and audit evidence needs.
Data Protection
Financial data requires encryption, tokenization, access controls, and audit trails that exceed typical security practices. One leak can trigger regulatory action.
Uptime Requirements
Money never sleeps. Payment systems, trading platforms, and banking services require near-100% availability with zero tolerance for extended outages.
Audit Readiness
Auditors want evidence—logs, access records, change history, security scans. Manual evidence collection doesn't scale; you need automation.
Partner Integrations
Banking APIs, payment networks, credit bureaus, KYC providers—each integration must be secure, reliable, and meet the partner's security requirements.
Performance at Scale
Payment processing requires low latency and high throughput. Users abandon transactions that take too long. Peak handling (Black Friday, month-end) is critical.
Compliance Frameworks We Implement
Technical controls mapped to regulatory requirements, with automated evidence collection.
PCI-DSS
Complete implementation of all 12 PCI-DSS requirements. Network segmentation, cardholder data protection, vulnerability management, access controls, and continuous monitoring.
SOC 2
Technical controls for all five trust service criteria. Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, Privacy—with evidence automation for Type II audits.
GDPR
Data protection by design. Consent management, data subject rights, breach notification procedures, data processing agreements, and cross-border transfer compliance.
Banking Regulations
Infrastructure controls for banking partnerships. State money transmitter compliance, OCC guidance, Fed requirements, and bank audit questionnaire readiness.
SOX Controls
IT General Controls (ITGCs) for Sarbanes-Oxley compliance. Change management, access controls, segregation of duties, and audit trail requirements.
ISO 27001
Information Security Management System implementation. Risk assessment, security controls, incident response, and continuous improvement aligned with ISO standards.
Security Architecture for FinTech
Defense-in-depth security designed for financial data protection.
Segmentation & Isolation
Cardholder Data Environment (CDE) isolation, private subnets, network ACLs, security groups, WAF, DDoS protection, and zero-trust network architecture.
Implementation
VPC design with public/private/isolated subnets, Transit Gateway for multi-VPC, AWS Shield + WAF, PrivateLink for service access.
Encryption & Tokenization
AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit, field-level encryption for sensitive data, tokenization for card numbers, key management with HSMs.
Implementation
AWS KMS with custom key policies, CloudHSM for highest assurance, application-level encryption, third-party tokenization integration.
Identity & Authentication
Role-based access control (RBAC), multi-factor authentication, privileged access management, session management, and just-in-time access for sensitive operations.
Implementation
AWS IAM with least privilege, SSO integration, Teleport/Boundary for infrastructure access, break-glass procedures for emergencies.
Logging & Detection
Comprehensive audit logging, real-time threat detection, anomaly identification, SIEM integration, and automated incident response for security events.
Implementation
CloudTrail + GuardDuty + Security Hub, centralized logging, custom detection rules, PagerDuty integration for alerts.
Scanning & Patching
Automated vulnerability scanning, container image scanning, dependency scanning, penetration testing support, and patch management with minimal downtime.
Implementation
AWS Inspector, Trivy for containers, Dependabot/Snyk for dependencies, automated patching with blue-green deployments.
Detection & Recovery
Security incident playbooks, automated containment, forensic capabilities, breach notification procedures, and disaster recovery for security events.
Implementation
Incident response runbooks, automated quarantine, log preservation, communication templates, tabletop exercises.
FinTech Infrastructure Services
End-to-end infrastructure for financial services companies.
Secure Cloud Architecture
Design and implement compliant AWS/GCP/Azure architecture. VPC design, compute, databases, caching, CDN—all configured for PCI scope reduction and compliance requirements.
CI/CD with Security Gates
Secure CI/CD pipelines with SAST, DAST, dependency scanning, and compliance checks built in. Automated security gates that block vulnerable deployments.
Kubernetes for FinTech
Hardened Kubernetes clusters with pod security policies, network policies, secrets management, service mesh, and compliance-ready configurations.
Compliance Automation
Automated compliance monitoring, evidence collection, and remediation. Continuous compliance posture assessment instead of point-in-time audits.
DR & 24x7 Operations
Multi-region DR with automated failover and tested runbooks. Round-the-clock support from engineers who understand FinTech compliance and security incident response.
