Overview

Protiviti’s SWIFT Assessment Offering helps organizations validate the design and operating effectiveness of controls protecting their SWIFT infrastructure and message flows while aligning with annual SWIFT CSP expectations. We assess applicable CSCF controls, confirm readiness for customer security attestation, and identify gaps that may increase operational, cyber, or regulatory risk. Our engagement addresses the full SWIFT security lifecycle, including: • Governance and risk management • SWIFT architecture and environment segmentation • Identity, authentication, and privileged access management • System hardening and configuration management • Logging, monitoring, and anomaly detection • Vulnerability and patch management • Incident response and cyber resilience

Protiviti delivers a structured assessment that combines stakeholder workshops, technical and procedural control evaluation, and detailed evidence review. The outcome is a clear, defensible view of compliance readiness and a pragmatic remediation roadmap that improves security maturity without disrupting critical payment operations.
