Vattanac Bank protects financial ecosystem after meeting all SWIFT CSP controls

Challenge

• Vattanac Bank required guidance and external support to ensure compliance with the new SWIFT CSP controls and attestation methodology

Solution

Bottomline SWIFT Customer Security Programme (CSP)

• A pre-attestation from Bottomline’s SWIFT certified cyber security partner provided precise recommendations for remediation
• The full attestation was completed to ensure Vattanac Bank met all mandatory and advisory control requirements of the SWIFT Customer Security Controls Framework

Results

Complying with the SWIFT CSP has enabled the bank to fulfil many regulatory compliance requirements and will satisfy any future KYC requests from correspondent banks

Vattanac Bank has gained a deeper understanding of the SWIFT CSP and IAF process, which will better prepare them for upcoming control changes, with the ongoing support of Bottomline

“By completing the independent assessment for all mandatory and advisory controls, Vattanac Bank are well prepared for any changes to the annual SWIFT CSP requirements with the continued support of Bottomline and their approved auditor. Meeting these security controls will help protect our environment and foster a more secure financial ecosystem.”
