How do we ensure digital security?
Our NIST Cybersecurity Framework is designed on the following lines – to identify, protect, detect, respond and recover. As for security protocols, all connections to the external network are carried via a firewall, IPS using secured protocols, and is configured to restrict access to various resources. Domain-level group policies are in effect in the entire network which restricts the usage of all hardware/software resources. We follow an approved method to isolate the services to banks, both physically and logically to segregate from other clients. Exchange over shared networks is protected against unauthorized interception by virtual private networks (“VPN”) with encrypted tunnels or end-to-end encryption between authenticated endpoints.
