Penetration testing for banks and insurers, mapped to the regulator.
Banks, NBFCs, brokers and insurers test because their regulator says so, on a calendar the regulator sets. Sumrite plans the testing, fixes and retest around those dates.
Penetration testing for banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI) covers internet and mobile banking, customer and broker portals, payment and core-banking APIs, internal networks and Active Directory, and red team exercises. Reports are mapped to the regulator’s framework, such as RBI directions, the SEBI CSCRF, IRDAI guidelines or the SAMA Cyber Security Framework, with formal CERT-In or NCA audits delivered through Sumrite’s partners.
What BFSI testing covers
- Internet and mobile banking, trading and policy portals
- Payment, UPI and core-banking APIs
- Internal networks, Active Directory and segmentation
- Red team operations to test detection and response
- Third-party and vendor connections
Frequently asked questions
Do banks in India need a CERT-In empanelled auditor?
Where a regulator or contract names one, such as SEBI’s cyber audit, yes. Sumrite runs the engagement and routes the formal audit through its CERT-In empanelled partner.
How often do regulated entities need VAPT?
At least yearly in most cases, with frequency for some SEBI entities set by category. Plan the test, fixes and retest before the submission date.
