The financial services industry is a top target for cybercriminals because of the large sums of money and sensitive customer data it handles daily. Even a minor vulnerability in a public-facing portal or internal process can be exploited to commit fraud or steal data.
Today’s financial institutions use mobile apps, APIs, cloud platforms, and vendor tools—introducing dozens of attack vectors. Fast development cycles and shifting regulatory environments can make it easy to overlook critical security gaps.
Our financial services penetration testing services are built to find and prioritize those risks. We test like real attackers across your entire environment, from customer interfaces and cloud apps to internal networks and physical locations.
See why threats are rising in our latest blog post on financial services security trends.
We simulate credential stuffing attacks on login portals and mobile apps—testing your ability to detect and prevent credential abuse, session takeover, and account fraud.
Our phishing simulations mimic regulatory messages, client inquiries, and urgent wire requests. These lures are used to test your firm’s resilience against business email compromise.
We test cloud systems like Microsoft 365, AWS, and Salesforce for excessive permissions, exposed APIs, or lack of MFA—common sources of data breaches and compliance issues.
We simulate lateral movement from marketing and HR endpoints toward financial systems. Weak segmentation can expose sensitive operations to lower-privileged threats.
We assess external attack surfaces including web portals, cloud APIs, remote access tools, and email services to identify risks before attackers exploit them.
We simulate insider threats and compromised employee devices—testing lateral movement, privilege escalation, and exposure of client data or operational tools.
We assess wireless security across offices and branches, testing guest segmentation, rogue devices, and wireless password hygiene.
We test client portals, CRMs, mobile apps, and fintech platforms for injection flaws, logic vulnerabilities, insecure tokens, and broken access controls.
We simulate phishing and vishing attacks to assess employee readiness and escalation protocols across departments handling sensitive data and transfers.
We examine cloud environments for access control misconfigurations, unmonitored roles, data exposure, and unnecessary third-party integrations.
We simulate physical access to branch and HQ locations, testing badge systems, security desks, and unlocked terminals for exposure to internal systems.
Our red team simulates persistent adversaries combining phishing, badge spoofing, C2 channels, and privilege escalation to test your defenses end-to-end.
We simulate cybercriminals, ransomware groups, and APTs targeting financial infrastructure, cloud portals, and regulated data environments.
We deliver penetration testing aligned with FFIEC, GLBA, SEC, NYDFS, ISO 27001, and client due diligence requirements.
We support executive teams with cyber strategy development, incident response planning, vendor risk oversight, and vCISO services for fast-scaling fintechs and banks alike.
Adversim has tested the security of digital banks, investment firms, fintech apps, and payment platforms. We understand the pace and regulatory pressure of the financial sector and tailor testing to your business goals and compliance obligations.
