Robust Web Security for Financial Service Providers

VIRTIS provides next-generation protection for financial sites, apps, services, and APIs.

Priority Targets Need Preeminent Security

The financial services industry is one of the most valuable targets for hackers. Darknet marketplaces offer attack tools and illicit services aimed at banks, payment providers, and other financial companies.

There are even organized crime rings (in Eastern Europe and Brazil) which specialize in financial cybercrime. Today’s threat actors are highly skilled, well-equipped, and tenacious.

Unique Challenges Require a Unique Solution

No other industry is so intensely targeted by threat actors, while having such high penalties for failure.

Even a small security incident is enough to cause PR nightmares, punitive regulatory fines, and potentially crippling loss of business.

Next-Generation Web Security for Financial Services

VIRTIS is a cloud-based, PCI DSS certified web security platform that provides comprehensive protection for financial service providers. It blocks breaches and hacking attempts, defeats DDoS attacks, excludes hostile bots, and more.

Keep Hackers Out

  • Next-generation WAF prevents code and SQL injection, XSS, form manipulation, protocol exploits, session tampering, malicious payloads, and more.
  • Full API protection includes schema ingestion and enforcement.
  • Industry-leading granular ACLs and custom rulesets give you fine-grained control over your traffic.
  • A robust SDK for mobile/native apps provides client authentication and validation, prevents emulator/bot abuse of APIs and services, and more.

Keeps Applications Available

VIRTIS blocks DoS and DDoS attacks in the cloud, before they can reach your network. Your sites, applications, and services remain fully responsive to your customers.

Blocks Hostile Bots

Bots are used in a variety of attacks against financial service providers. This includes everything from vulnerability scans to sophisticated account takeovers (e.g., credential stuffing combined with identity/IP rotation)—subtle attacks which are very difficult for most security solutions to detect, but with disastrous consequences for the provider if they succeed. 

VIRTIS is a pioneer in applying advanced technologies such as Machine Learning and biometric behavioral analysis to bot detection and exclusion. Even sophisticated modern bots that can mimic human activities are identified and blocked.

Compliant and Certified Protection

VIRTIS' clouds are fully compliant with GDPR, SOC 1/SSAE 16/ISAE  3402, FISMA Moderate, PCI DSS, ISO 27001, FIPS 140-2, HIPAA, CSA (Cloud Security Alliance), and other standards and certifications. 

VIRTIS is ISO 27001 Certified, AICPA SOC 2 Certified, and is a PCI DSS Certified Level 1 and Level 2 Service Provider.
