Zero-Trust Architecture for a Multi-Region Fintech

Replaced perimeter VPNs with identity-aware access, cutting the attack surface and passing SOC 2 Type II with zero exceptions.

All Case Studies
01Challenge

Rapid growth left a sprawl of VPNs, shared credentials, and inconsistent access policies that would not survive a SOC 2 Type II audit.

02Approach

We implemented identity-aware proxies, phishing-resistant MFA, and policy-as-code, then generated continuous evidence so audit readiness became a steady state rather than a scramble.

03Architecture

Okta as the identity backbone, Cloudflare Access for application gating, HashiCorp Vault for secrets, OPA for policy-as-code, and Wiz for continuous cloud posture management.

04Results

Passed SOC 2 Type II with zero exceptions, reduced the externally reachable attack surface by 78%, and made quarterly access reviews three times faster.
