SEBI CSCRF: Automating Cyber Resilience – A Deep Dive for Information Security Professionals

When you’re a bank operating under the strict oversight of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), cybersecurity isn’t just a priority—it’s a mandate. One of India’s leading mid-sized banks recently faced the challenge of aligning their cyber risk posture, vulnerability management, and regulatory compliance under one streamlined strategy. That’s where SynVM came in. The Challenge: Disconnected Systems, Siloed Risk Visibility The bank was juggling multiple initiatives—vulnerability scans, cyber risk assessments, RBI compliance checklists—but none of it was centralized. 2. Vulnerability remediation had no clear prioritization 3. Compliance teams worked separately from IT security 4. Reporting to RBI was manual and time-consuming They needed a unified platform to connect the dots between risk, assets, vulnerabilities, and compliance requirements. SynVM : Risk-Aware, Compliance-Ready SynVM, SynRadar’s Virtual Mapping platform, became the central nervous system for their cyber governance. Here’s how we helped: ✅ Real-time mapping of vulnerabilities to critical assets✅ Automated risk scoring based on asset importance and exposure✅ Built-in compliance frameworks like RBI Cybersecurity Guidelines, ISO 27001, and NIST✅ Single dashboard for cyber posture, compliance gaps, and remediation tracking With SynVM, the bank no longer had to guess which vulnerabilities mattered most or scramble before audits. Everything was risk-ranked and evidence-backed. The Impact: From Reactive to Resilient In just three months: 🔒 95% visibility into critical vulnerabilities across their infrastructure 📊 Integrated risk and compliance dashboards available to CISO and compliance heads 🕒 Audit preparation time reduced by 70% 🧩 Compliance mapping across RBI, ISO, and NIST—eliminating redundancy “SynVM gave us control and clarity.

Third-party/vendor risk assessment 2. Business continuity planning audits 3. Automated policy reviews and attestations With SynVM, they’ve moved from point-in-time assessments to continuous cyber resilience—aligned with both RBI expectations and global standards.
