On SWIFT, yes, you can, thanks to their own reply to the Bangladesh incident: a reasonably thorough set of security guidelines called CSP/CSCF (Customer Security Program/Control Framework), compliance to which is now mandatory. Network isolation, 2-factor authentication, secure VDI for access, physical access controls, log retention, it's all in there. It's the perfect chance to get money and people from management and sanitize the situation.
Actually if in May 2018 you don't already have a running project and resources for compliance, you should be quite worried.
- lifeisstillgood 8y agoInteresting - I got as far as here before hitting login https://www2.swift.com/uhbonline/books/a2z/customer_security_programme.htm https://www2.swift.com/uhbonline/books/a2z/customer_security... is there a openly published version of this - it would be interesting to see what best practise looked like
- gruturo 8y agoI found an openly accessible link which gives you at least an overview of each of the security controls. Everything else is behind a login prompt, sorry. https://www.swift.com/myswift/customer-security-programme-csp/security-controls?tl=en#topic-tabs-menu https://www.swift.com/myswift/customer-security-programme-cs...
