Financial institutions: accelerate transformation while ensuring access security and regulatory compliance

The transformation of financial institutions continues to accelerate due to the influx of new players in the market, such as fintech companies and neobanks.

To respond to these challengers, traditional banking institutions must reinvent themselves by finding new disruptive models and adapting their strategy to provide increased value to customers in order to maximize customer loyalty.

Simply offering online banking services is no longer sufficient; all internal processes must now be digitized to increase efficiency and ensure the organization’s sustainability in an environment where each day brings a new challenger.

Learn more: Access security and regulatory compliance for financial institutions

Access security and regulatory compliance for financial institutions is now an absolute priority. In an era of accelerated digital transformation and growing cyber threats, banks, insurance companies, and credit institutions must ensure strict control over identities, permissions, and critical flows. ROK Solution offers a comprehensive approach to strengthen security measures while meeting the ever-evolving regulatory requirements.

With an integrated platform, financial organizations can implement compliant and efficient identity and access management (IAM) for finance. It enables tracking every access, limiting excessive privileges, and orchestrating rights according to internal rules. This approach also contributes to fraud protection by detecting and blocking abnormal behaviors at the system level.

Automation plays a key role in this governance. Workflows are automatically orchestrated to adjust access based on roles, departments, and statuses. Advanced reporting and access control enable real-time audits, which are essential for meeting GDPR compliance and banking regulations.

This management fits into a broader hyperautomation approach (workflow orchestration, BPM, RPA, AI, no-code), which streamlines processes while ensuring their traceability.

Access security and regulatory compliance for financial institutions relies on centralized and automated governance of identities and roles. Through a BOAT (Business Orchestration and Automation Technologies) platform, institutions can manage their authorizations based on precise and contextual policies. This enables role and authorization management that is transparent and tailored to business needs.

Separation of duties (SoD) and risk management are ensured through integrated control matrices. Each permission is verified in light of potential role conflicts, and corrective rules are automatically applied. This system is crucial for ensuring financial flow security and preventing internal fraud.

The system also enables real-time monitoring, powered by activity logs and contextual alerts. User behavior analysis detects anomalies and triggers automated remediation mechanisms. This active security is based on multi-factor authentication, compatible with cloud and hybrid environments.

These features are part of a broader dynamic orchestration of roles, identities, and access designed for high-criticality environments.

Access security and regulatory compliance for financial institutions also requires intelligent automation of user journeys. As soon as an employee joins, an onboarding process is triggered. It generates credentials, assigns roles, and activates access to financial systems according to internal policies. This automated provisioning ensures fast, secure, and traceable onboarding.

This system relies on an automated HR workflow, connected to information systems. Digitalization of the onboarding processes secures access to data and tools from day one. Each action is logged, and every permission is justified. In case of departure or role change, deactivation is equally swift.

This automation is reinforced by an integrated approach to banking permission management within critical infrastructures, including ERPs. By centralizing business roles and application access, institutions can align security, efficiency, and compliance.

The entire process is orchestrated through advanced onboarding automation and access management mechanisms to ensure continuity and compliance.

Access security and regulatory compliance for financial institutions also concern ERP environments, which are often at the heart of accounting, tax, and treasury operations. These systems store highly sensitive data and require precise control over permissions.

With role automation and access management for ERP and SAP, permissions are granted according to business rules, validated by security managers. SAP license control policies and IT vulnerability management are strengthened. Each modification is auditable. Each role is aligned with internal and sector-specific standards.

The optimization of banking IT processes is enhanced by this automation. It reduces human errors, accelerates access provisioning, and eliminates undetected permission gaps. This approach is particularly useful in processes of mergers, restructures, or the creation of new entities.

Discover how this orchestration integrates through the role automation and access management for ERP and SAP modules.

Access security and regulatory compliance for financial institutions is part of a global governance approach. IT security, compliance, and risk managers must be able to manage, review, and audit permissions at any time. With intuitive interfaces, they have access to a comprehensive dashboard of permissions, with features such as advanced reporting, simulation, and certification.

IT governance automation features allow for the automatic generation of compliance reports, access reviews, and risk analyses. These elements are essential for meeting regulatory audits, as well as for anticipating internal and third-party audits. Customer information protection is guaranteed at every step, even during version upgrades, cloud migrations, or incidents.

Sensitive data is compartmentalized, encrypted, and continuously monitored. The protection of critical infrastructures follows a secure digital transformation logic, without compromising performance.
