Cybersecurity for banking, insurance and critical infrastructure

We embed security across the entire software and operations lifecycle: from secure SDLC and SAST/DAST analysis to Zero Trust identity management and continuous SIEM/SOC monitoring.

  • Secure SDLC
  • SAST/DAST
  • SBOM
  • Zero Trust
  • IAM/PAM
  • SIEM/SOC
  • ISO 27001 certificada
  • Secure SDLC
  • DORA · NIS2

Security is not added at the end, it is designed in from the start

In banking, insurance and critical industry, a vulnerability in a core system is not an isolated technical incident: it is a regulatory, reputational and operational risk. Reactive approaches —scanning just before production— arrive too late and make remediation more expensive.

At Vermont Solutions we embed security controls into every phase of the lifecycle (secure SDLC), automating the early detection of defects and aligning evidence with the regulatory frameworks applicable to each market.

Common security challenges in regulated environments

  • Vulnerabilities detected late, already in production, with a high remediation cost.
  • Opaque software supply chain: third-party dependencies and components left uninventoried.
  • Legacy identity and access management, with excessive privileges and obsolete protocols.
  • Compliance evidence scattered and hard to audit before the regulator.

What does our service include?

  • Static and dynamic analysis (SAST/DAST) integrated into the CI/CD pipeline.
  • Threat modeling and secure architecture review.
  • Component inventory (SBOM) and supply chain control.
  • Identity and access management (IAM/PAM) under Zero Trust principles.

Core capabilities

Secure SDLC and security in the pipeline

We integrate automated security controls into every phase of development, so that defects are detected and fixed before reaching production.

  • Static (SAST) and dynamic (DAST) analysis on every build.
  • Secrets management outside the code.
  • Security quality gates that block insecure deployments.
  • Lower remediation cost by shifting detection to earlier phases.

Zero Trust identity and access (IAM/PAM)

We design least-privilege identity models, eliminating legacy protocols and unnecessary standing access.

  • MFA and granular role control.
  • Privileged access management (PAM) with auditable sessions.
  • Removal of obsolete protocols in Microsoft 365 environments.
  • Full traceability of who accesses what and when.

Software supply chain security (SBOM)

We inventory software components and track their vulnerabilities over time.

  • Generation and maintenance of the SBOM.
  • Detection of vulnerable dependencies.
  • Update and mitigation policies.
  • Lower risk arising from third-party components.

Continuous monitoring (SIEM/SOC) and response

We implement continuous visibility and detection, with response processes aligned to business continuity.

  • Event correlation and anomaly detection.
  • Security posture dashboards.
  • Regulatory evidence generated continuously.
  • Integration with operational resilience plans.

Measurable evidence and posture

Our approach turns security into something auditable and operable, not a statement of intent:

  • Vulnerability detection shifted to earlier phases of the lifecycle.
  • Component inventory (SBOM) kept live and traceable.
  • Privileged access auditable session by session.
  • Control evidence generated automatically.
  • Reduced attack surface through removal of legacy protocols.

Use cases

Banking and insurance under operational resilience

Alignment of security controls and evidence with the operational resilience frameworks applicable to each market.

Secure modernization of critical systems

Building security in by design into migrations and modernizations, avoiding carrying over legacy security debt.

Identity hardening in the cloud

Implementation of MFA, least privilege and removal of obsolete protocols in Microsoft 365 and cloud environments.

Anticipate risk before it becomes an incident

We assess your security posture and design an improvement plan prioritized by real risk, one that fits the way you work.

Our specialists will review your development lifecycle, your identity management and your software supply chain to propose effective and auditable controls.

Frequently asked questions

What is secure SDLC and why does it matter in banking?
Secure SDLC embeds security controls into every phase of development —design, code, build, deployment— instead of scanning only at the end. In banking and insurance it brings vulnerability detection forward, reduces remediation cost and generates auditable evidence continuously.
What is the difference between SAST and DAST?
SAST (static analysis) examines source code and configuration for defects without running the application; DAST (dynamic analysis) tests the running application, simulating real attacks. They are complementary: SAST detects earlier, DAST validates runtime behavior. Vermont Solutions integrates both into the CI/CD pipeline.
What is an SBOM and why do I need one?
An SBOM (Software Bill of Materials) is the inventory of all the components and dependencies of a system. When a known vulnerability appears, it lets you know whether your organization is exposed and where. It is the foundation for governing software supply chain risk, increasingly required by financial regulation.
What does a Zero Trust architecture mean?
Zero Trust starts from not trusting any access by default, not even internal access: every request is authenticated, authorized and logged according to least privilege. In practice this involves MFA, privileged access management (PAM), segmentation and removal of legacy protocols, with full traceability.
How does cybersecurity fit with regulatory operational resilience?
Operational resilience frameworks require managing ICT risk, controlling critical providers and demonstrating continuity. Security provides the controls —vulnerability management, identity, monitoring— and the evidence those frameworks require. Vermont Solutions anchors the evidence to the framework applicable in each market: DORA in the European Union and its equivalents from the CMF in Chile and the CNBV in Mexico.
