Security & Compliance Framework

Zero Trust, the patch and vulnerability lifecycle, SIEM, and Indian mandates: the IT Act, CERT-In, RBI, IRDAI, and data residency.

Zero Trust as the operating assumption

Zero Trust replaces the old castle-and-moat model with a simple principle: never trust, always verify. Every access request is authenticated, authorised, and continuously evaluated regardless of network location, and privileges are granted least-first.

The vulnerability lifecycle

  • Discover — continuously scan the estate for known vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.
  • Prioritise — rank by exploitability and business impact, not raw CVSS alone.
  • Remediate — patch on a defined SLA, with tested rollback.
  • Verify — re-scan to confirm closure and feed metrics back to leadership.

SIEM and detection

A Security Information and Event Management platform centralises logs and applies correlation rules and analytics to surface threats. Combined with CERT-In's log-retention and six-hour incident-reporting requirements, a well-run SIEM is both a security control and a compliance instrument.

The Indian regulatory stack

Compliance is not a single checkbox but a layered set of obligations — the IT Act and DPDP Act at the base, CERT-In directions for incident handling, and sector regulators like RBI and IRDAI imposing data-localisation and resilience duties on regulated entities. Designing for the strictest applicable mandate keeps the whole estate audit-ready.
