Die Herausforderung
Veloce Financial Technologies had a flat network architecture that a third-party audit identified as having 3 critical vulnerabilities. With a PCI-DSS Level 1 certification deadline 12 months away, 2.4 million users' financial data at risk, and a board-mandated security overhaul, they needed a partner who could deliver fast without disrupting 24/7 trading operations.
Die Lösung
We designed a zero trust architecture from first principles — network microsegmentation across 12 security zones, an identity-aware proxy replacing legacy VPN access, and an AI-powered SIEM that reduced alert noise by 74%. We ran quarterly red team exercises and embedded security champions inside each engineering squad. Developer security training was mandatory before any code shipped to production.
