Overview
Our client is an ambitious Fintech start-up that provides innovative digital payment solutions in India. Their user base was expanding quickly, necessitating a more secure security framework to safeguard sensitive financial data while upholding customer trust.
Due to their business and user data handling requirements, our client was in urgent need of a Security Operations Center (SOC) that could oversee and effectively manage their cybersecurity infrastructure.
Client Requirement
As a digital-first business, the client’s core concern was the cybersecurity monitoring of their web application, APIs, and backend servers in real time. They wanted to:
- Establish a Cyber Security Operation Center that could actively track, analyze, and respond to security threats.
- Conduct an SOC Audit in order to assess vulnerabilities within their infrastructure.
- Obtain a clear and detailed SOC Report for internal assessment and regulatory compliance.
- Partner with an established service provider offering managed SOC Services under one roof.
Their mission was to design a solution that was scalable, compliant with industry best practices, and met regulatory requirements.
Risks and Vulnerabilities Have Been Identified
During the initial SOC Audit and vulnerability assessment, ECS identified several critical issues:
- Absence of centralized monitoring for system logs and security events.
- Outdated antivirus and endpoint protection systems.
- Incomplete patch management process.
- Lack of real-time alerting and incident response protocols.
- No formal documentation or SOC Report on past incidents or threat handling.
These gaps posed serious threats to the integrity and confidentiality of customer data.

We also updated all systems with the latest patches and integrated a robust SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) system to centralize monitoring.
3. Reporting Phase
Upon completion, we delivered a detailed SOC Report outlining detected vulnerabilities, resolved incidents, and suggested improvements. This report became a valuable asset for internal reviews and upcoming audits.
