Swift CSP Assessment
Consult our experts. We are happy to support you.
Swift’s Customer Security Programme (CSP) helps financial institutions ensure their defenses against cyberattacks are up to date and effective in order to protect the integrity of the wider financial network. The CSP includes initiatives like the Swift Customer Security Controls Framework (CSCF), the Swift Customer Security Controls Policy, and the Swift Information Sharing and Analysis Centre (ISAC). Financial institutions implement security measures and compare their measures with those detailed in the Customer Security Controls Framework (CSCF) before attesting their level of compliance annually. atsec provides guidance on security implementations, as well as the formal assessment.
