SWIFT AUDITING

Protecting the SWIFT network, your customers and your reputation

GET A QUOTE

The Society For Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT), the network that enables banks to exchange information about financial transactions, moves trillions of dollars around the world every day.

Security in the messaging service is paramount. Customers must adhere to the SWIFT Customer Security Controls Framework (CSCF), described by SWIFT as “a security baseline for the entire community” – yet the messaging service has become a prime target for sophisticated cyber attackers.

There are three levels of compliance: Self-attestation, internal audit or third-party review.

What we do

We are qualified, independent SWIFT auditors, providing external audits for those organizations opting for a third-party review.

Engaging Dionach as an external specialist will not only ensure you meet SWIFT’s mandatory compliance requirements, it will deliver an additional level of assurance in the security of your SWIFT-related infrastructure.

As your chosen auditor we will help to reduce complexity in the compliance process and relieve the pressure on your internal resources. Our team will assess your information security controls or deliver a full audit to highlight non-conformances and produce a clear report on how to address them.

SWIFT CSP Attestation Audit

Engaging Dionach as an external specialist will not only ensure you meet SWIFT’s mandatory compliance requirements, but also deliver an additional level of assurance in the security of your SWIFT-related infrastructure.

An attestation audit identifies where risk drivers from the SWIFT CSP are, or are not, met. Our clear report meets requirements for SWIFT IAF supporting documents, provides insight and tailored advice on how to address non-conformances to achieve attestation, and guides you through submission of a fully compliant attestation via the SWIFT KYC-SA application.

SWIFT CSP Gap Audit

Your first external assessment may highlight more non-conformances than previously identified by internal assessments or self-attestation. As such, it may be beneficial to undergo a gap audit before an attestation audit.

Dionach’s SWIFT CSP gap audit is an analysis of your organisation’s SWIFT-related infrastructure to understand what you need to do to meet SWIFT’s mandatory compliance requirements. Consultants will interview relevant staff, review your current policies, procedures, and practices, then produce a detailed gap audit report which defines your current compliance levels, highlights any areas that need to be addressed, and provides tailored recommendations to achieve compliance against the SWIFT CSCF controls.

WHY CONDUCT Regular Swift auditing?

  • Understand and mitigate risk to protect your organization’s information.
  • Help in identifying performance bottlenecks and inefficiencies in the code.
  • Ensure that the Swift code follows established coding standards, architectural guidelines, and industry best practices.
  • Meet compliance obligations.
  • Regular auditing provides a health check for the codebase.
  • Improve attack detection rates and tighten up your incident response procedures.
