The Challenge

  • Lack of clarity around the organization's current defense capabilities against real-world threats.

  • Frequent updates and rollouts in web and mobile applications created persistent security risks.

  • Achieving and maintaining compliance with RBI cybersecurity guidelines was critical to operational continuity.

Our Approach

  • Comprehensive VAPT Across Layers: Performed VAPT across web, mobile, network, and API layers to simulate real-world attack scenarios and uncover gaps in defense.

  • Cloud Configuration: Review Red Team Assessments Assessed cloud infrastructure against industry best practices to identify misconfigurations and reduce exposure to cloud-specific threats.

  • Red Team Assessments: Conducted Red Team simulations to test the NBFC’s detection and response capabilities, and supported remediation of vulnerabilities across the technology stack.

  • ISMS & RBI Alignment: Mapped security controls to RBI guidelines and ISMS standards, conducted gap assessments, and implemented necessary technical and procedural measures.

Impact

  • Security Gaps Identified and Remediation Guidance across Environments: Engagements uncovered critical vulnerabilities across applications, infrastructure, and APIs, leading to swift implementation of remediation measures and improved defensive capabilities.

  • Hardened Cloud Infrastructure: Cloud configuration reviews led to the implementation of best practices and secure architecture changes, reducing risk in an increasingly cloud-reliant environment.

  • Strengthened Security Posture and Incident Readiness: Through Red Team simulations and VAPT, the organization gained practical insights into its threat landscape and improved its ability to detect, respond, and recover from cyber incidents.

  • RBI & ISMS Compliance Requirements Met: The improvements and documentation provided by Sumeru ensured full alignment with RBI mandates and ISMS principles, enabling continued operations without disruption or penalty.
