Codec Networks’ SEBI Cyber Resilience Audit service is a comprehensive, independent assessment designed to evaluate and validate an organization’s cybersecurity posture in line with the guidelines issued by Securities and Exchange Board of India for stock exchanges, clearing corporations, depositories, brokers, and other market intermediaries. The service focuses on assessing governance, policies, processes, and technical controls that collectively ensure cyber resilience—namely the ability to prevent, detect, respond to, and recover from cyber threats while maintaining the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of critical market systems.
The audit covers key domains prescribed by SEBI, including IT and information security governance, risk assessment, network and infrastructure security, application security, data protection, identity and access management, incident response, cyber crisis management, and business continuity/disaster recovery. Codec Networks combines document review, technical configuration assessment, vulnerability evaluation, and stakeholder interviews to identify gaps against SEBI requirements and industry best practices, and to assess the effectiveness of existing controls.
As an outcome, the service delivers a clear compliance status, risk-rated findings, and actionable recommendations to address gaps and strengthen cyber resilience. Codec Networks also supports management with audit reports and compliance artifacts suitable for regulatory submission, enabling organizations to demonstrate adherence to SEBI cyber security and cyber resilience expectations while proactively reducing operational and systemic cyber risk in the securities market ecosystem.

How Services Help
Ransomware is one of the most disruptive cyber threats affecting financial institutions and market intermediaries. Attackers infiltrate networks through phishing emails, vulnerable systems, or compromised credentials. Once inside, they encrypt critical trading systems, databases, and operational servers. In capital markets, even short outages can halt transactions and cause financial losses. Ransomware actors increasingly use double-extortion tactics, threatening to leak stolen data. Backup systems are often targeted before encryption to maximize impact. Financial institutions are high-value targets due to time-sensitive operations. Regulatory scrutiny intensifies when customer data or market systems are impacted.
How Services Help Mitigate Ransomware:
Phishing remains a primary attack vector in financial markets. Attackers impersonate regulators, vendors, or internal executives. Employees unknowingly disclose login credentials. Spear phishing targets high-level personnel. Stolen credentials allow attackers to bypass perimeter controls. Compromised accounts are used for fraud or data exfiltration. Phishing also introduces malware into networks. Capital market firms are attractive targets due to financial transactions and sensitive data.
How Services Help Mitigate Phishing:
DDoS attacks overwhelm trading platforms with malicious traffic. Exchanges and brokers face service disruption during peak trading sessions. These attacks are sometimes timed with market volatility. Financial institutions experience reputational damage during outages. DDoS attacks may also mask other intrusions. Attack sophistication has increased using botnets. Cloud infrastructure can also be targeted. Continuous availability is critical in capital markets.
How Services Help Mitigate DDoS:
APTs are long-term, stealthy attacks often conducted by sophisticated actors. These attackers maintain persistence within networks. Financial institutions are strategic economic targets. APTs aim to manipulate data or steal confidential information. Detection is difficult due to stealth techniques. Attackers exploit supply chain and zero-day vulnerabilities. Lateral movement within internal systems is common. These attacks can undermine national economic stability.
How Services Help Mitigate APTs:
Insider threats originate from employees or contractors with authorized access. These threats may be malicious or negligent. Financial institutions handle highly sensitive data. Privileged users can bypass standard controls. Data theft or manipulation may occur internally. Monitoring gaps can delay detection. Insider misuse damages trust and compliance standing. Separation of duties is critical.
How Services Help Mitigate Insider Threats:
ATO attacks compromise user accounts using stolen credentials. Financial fraud often follows. Attackers exploit weak authentication mechanisms. Retail trading accounts are common targets. Session hijacking and brute force attacks occur. Customer trust is severely impacted. Detection delays increase losses. Regulatory reporting may be triggered.
How Services Help Mitigate ATO:
Financial institutions rely on vendors and fintech integrations. Weak vendor controls create indirect exposure. Compromised software updates can infect systems. Third-party API vulnerabilities are common. Vendor data sharing increases risk. Regulatory compliance extends to vendor oversight. Risk visibility is often limited.
How Services Help Mitigate Supply Chain Risks:
Malware infiltrates systems through downloads or compromised attachments. Trojans create hidden backdoors. Financial data may be exfiltrated. Endpoint compromise spreads internally. Detection evasion techniques increase risk. Malware may disrupt transaction systems. Endpoint security gaps are exploited.
How Services Help Mitigate Malware:
Unauthorized data extraction impacts investor trust. Sensitive personal and financial records are targeted. Data may be sold or leaked publicly. Regulatory penalties follow breaches. Encryption weaknesses increase exposure. Inadequate monitoring delays detection. Insider and external actors exploit gaps.
How Services Help Mitigate Data Breaches:
APIs enable digital trading integration. Poorly secured APIs allow unauthorized access. Injection attacks and logic flaws occur. Real-time transaction systems are targeted. Cloud-native applications expand risk exposure. Insecure coding practices create vulnerabilities. Exploits may manipulate financial data.
