Project Overview
A European fintech firm needed to modernize its data infrastructure to meet strict GDPR compliance standards. Their existing system had multiple security vulnerabilities that threatened their banking license and customer trust.
GryphalCode conducted a comprehensive security audit and implemented a multi-layered defense strategy. We redesigned their data encryption at rest and in transit, and established a zero-trust security architecture across their cloud environments.
The Challenge
- Non-compliant data handling processes.
- Lack of granular access controls for sensitive PII.
- Outdated encryption standards (TLS 1.0/1.1 usage).
The Solution
We moved all sensitive data to isolated, encrypted RDS instances and implemented AWS KMS for key management. We also integrated an automated PII discovery tool that alerts compliance officers to any unauthorized data storage or sharing.
Key Results
The firm achieved 100% GDPR compliance and passed an independent ISO 27001 certification audit. Security incidents dropped by 95% , and customer confidence improved significantly.
