Fintech practice

Security & compliance
for fintech.

Fintech carries more regulatory weight than almost any software category, and the demands compound as you grow. traztech runs SOC 2, PCI DSS, penetration testing, and fractional CISO as one fintech practice, so bank and enterprise diligence teams get answers that hold up. Built for Canadian fintechs and crypto firms selling into regulated buyers.

Talk to usFintech industry overview

The frameworks fintech buyers demand

We map the overlapping regimes into one control set so you implement once and satisfy several.

01

SOC 2 for enterprise and bank buyers

A SOC 2 Type II report is the baseline before a financial institution runs vendor diligence on you. We run it fixed-scope, gap analysis first.

02

PCI DSS for cardholder data

If you store, process, or transmit card data, PCI DSS applies. We reduce scope first, then handle readiness and the required penetration testing.

03

Real offensive testing

Fraud, money movement, and key management need testing by people who break systems for a living, not a checklist. Led by a published security researcher.

Frequently asked questions

Why does traztech focus on fintech?

Fintech stacks more compliance regimes than almost any other software category: SOC 2 for buyers and PCI DSS for card data, on top of the bank diligence that comes with selling to a financial institution. It is also where our demonstrated demand and offensive-security depth line up best, so it is a practice we lead with rather than a vertical we dabble in.

What frameworks do fintechs actually need?

Usually a combination: SOC 2 Type II as the baseline enterprise and bank buyers ask for, and PCI DSS if you store or process card data. We map them into one control set so you build the evidence once.

Do you work with crypto and Web3 companies?

Yes. Crypto lenders, wallets, and exchanges face the same buyer diligence plus higher stakes on key management and infrastructure. We scope pentesting and readiness to where the real losses happen, not just the paperwork.

Who runs the security testing?

Our principal is a published security researcher with five CVEs, including CVE-2024-45163 (CVSS 9.1), the kill-switch for the Mirai botnet. Hands-on offensive testing is delivered with our partner Lorikeet Security when an engagement calls for it.

Published vulnerability research

Five published CVEs. CVE-2024-45163 (CVSS 9.1) is a flaw in the Mirai botnet itself, which gave defenders a way to shut down attacker infrastructure. CVE-2026-42626 takes HP ENVY 5000 printers offline from any unauthenticated device on the same network.

The printer is the one that matters on a compliance page: an asset nobody counts as a computer, on a flat network, downed by a device that never had to log in. Auditors ask how controls fail. We have found out first-hand.

A SOC 2 Type II built from nothing

At Humera, a venture-backed US security company, Jacob built the compliance programme in-house from nothing: no report, no policies, no documented controls. It ended in a Type II attestation across 76 controls with zero exceptions, on a team of 15.

The platform held 99.9% uptime throughout, which is the part most readiness projects get wrong: controls are easy to design and hard to retrofit onto a system people already depend on.

Recent engagements

For a Waterloo data centre operator we ran SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001:2022 together rather than one after the other, across a production campus, an AI compute platform and a self-hosted collaboration stack. Scoped so further Ontario and Quebec sites enter as they reach production. Findings delivered and remediated.

For an Ontario medtech company putting an AI clinical assistant in front of practitioners, we ran the gap analysis and built the evidence programme behind their SOC 2.
