Who it applies to
Scheduled commercial banks, small finance banks, payments banks and credit card issuing NBFCs offering digital payment products in India.
What it demands
Governance
Board-approved policy for digital payment products, with periodic review.
Application security
Secure development, source code review, authentication and session management.
Customer protection
Transaction monitoring, alerting, and controls against unauthorised transactions.
How Compli-Once runs it
- 1
Directions modelled control by control, crosswalked to the RBI Cyber Security Framework.
- 2
Application security evidence such as code review and VAPT reports carries expiry tracking.
- 3
Board reporting computed from live control state, not reassembled each quarter.
What you already satisfy
RBI Digital Payment Security Controls overlaps with frameworks you may already run. The crosswalk quantifies existing coverage on day one, before you plan a single task.
Implement once, satisfy many
In a representative demonstration environment, 61% of a newly adopted regulatory framework was already satisfied by the existing ISO 27001 programme.
Illustrative, computed live per tenant in the platform.
Frequently asked questions
Does this overlap the RBI Cyber Security Framework?
Considerably. The crosswalk maps shared controls, and only the channel-specific requirements arrive as new work.
How is VAPT evidence handled?
As evidence with a validity window, so an expiring report raises a task before it becomes a finding.
