Microsecond Trades. Months-Long Breaches.

We Test at the Speed of Trading, Not Compliance.

The Reality

Trading systems process 1.5 billion messages per second. Attackers need just one. 

Nation-states hunt your algorithms. Insiders exploit microsecond advantages. Every connection is vulnerable.

The True Cost of Market Security

When milliseconds mean millions, security failures compound exponentially

Why Capital Markets are Different

Traditional security was built for trading floors and paper tickets. Modern markets are algorithmic, global, instantaneous.

Co-located servers. Direct market access. Alternative trading systems. 2,000+ API connections feeding algorithms worth billions.

Every microsecond of latency is a competitive disadvantage. Every security control is a speed compromise.

High-frequency trading meets high-frequency threats. Modern markets have thousands of data feeds executing billions of trades. Attackers exploit the gaps where speed meets security. Every connection is a potential manipulation vector.

One Test, Every Framework

Your investors require SOC 2. Your banking partners demand PCI DSS. Your enterprise clients need ISO 27001. Every partnership adds another compliance framework to your list

We understand the compliance maze fintechs navigate. Our testing doesn't just find vulnerabilities—it maps them to every framework you need to satisfy. One test, multiple compliance requirements checked.

But here's what matters: we go beyond the checkboxes to find what compliance misses. Because 18.4% of 'A' rated companies still get breached.

Compliance Through Combat

Capital Markets Requirements We Battle-Test:

  • SEC Regulation SCI - Bypass your system safeguards
  • FINRA Rule 4370 - Business continuity under cyberattack
  • Reg ATS - Alternative trading system vulnerabilities
  • SEC Market Access Rule - Pre-trade risk control bypasses
  • CFTC System Safeguards - Derivatives trading exploits
  • Dodd-Frank - Swap execution facility attacks
  • State Requirements - NY DFS, SHIELD Act compliance

The difference: Regulators check if controls exist. We prove they fail under attack.
