The Challenge

• To maintain compliance with NPCI, RBI, and frameworks such as CICRA, ISNP, IRDAI, and CBC audits.

• Demands of a fast-paced digital business environment made it difficult to implement traditional, high-assurance security reviews.

• Manual, expert-led secure code reviews were missing from the DevSecOps pipeline, introducing risks at the source code level.

Our Approach

• Full-Stack VAPT (Web, Mobile, Cloud, Network & API)
  Conducted rigorous penetration testing to identify vulnerabilities across every critical layer, enabling swift remediation and better visibility into security risk exposure.

• Cloud Configuration & Architecture Review
  Reviewed cloud environment configurations and system architecture to eliminate misconfigurations and ensure alignment with secure cloud best practices.

• Source Code Review by Experts
  Introduced manual secure code review practices, identifying issues that automated scanners may miss and strengthening security at the development level.

• Regulatory & Compliance Consulting
  Guided the organization through complex regulatory frameworks like NPCI, RBI, CICRA, IRDAI, ISNP, and co-branded card audits), ensuring compliance without disrupting business continuity

Impact

• Security Reinforced Across the Stack
  From infrastructure to applications, Sumeru's multi-layered assessments helped the organization identify and address critical vulnerabilities, improving resilience and reducing exposure.

• Secure Cloud Architecture and Dev Practices
  Cloud environments were hardened, and source code integrity was enhanced through expert review, helping prevent vulnerabilities from being introduced into production.

• Compliance Confidence Across Regulatory Bodies
  The organization met NPCI and RBI guidelines, along with CICRA, IRDAI, ISNP, and CBC audits, on time, minimizing compliance risk and reinforcing stakeholder trust.

• Proactive Risk Management with Cost Efficiency
  Timely identification and resolution of vulnerabilities reduced the need for emergency patches and reactive incident handling, leading to tangible savings in effort and cost.
