About SWIFT CSP

What is the SWIFT CSP?

The SWIFT Customer Security Programme (CSP) is a framework designed to help financial institutions improve their cyber security posture. All SWIFT members must submit an annual self-attestation of compliance with the controls outlined in the framework.

SWIFT conducts random inspections on its members to ensure that they have appropriate cyber security controls in place and reports any non-compliant organisations to industry regulators, such as the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority.

MDR for SWIFT CSP

Managed security services for SWIFT CSP compliance

The SWIFT CSP has three overarching objectives, split across seven key security principles and 27 controls. There are 16 mandatory and 11 advisory security controls. Mandatory controls are designed to establish a security baseline for the SWIFT community, while advisory controls are based on recommended best practice but could become mandatory in the future.
