Practical security and compliance guidance for India’s fintech ecosystem
India runs one of the world’s largest real-time payment systems, and regulators have raised the bar to match. Banks, NBFCs, payment aggregators, UPI apps (TPAPs), brokers and the start-ups that serve them now answer to overlapping requirements from RBI, SEBI, NPCI, CERT-In and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act.
Fintech Security is a knowledge hub from CyberQuotient. It explains these requirements in plain language and turns them into controls that security and engineering teams can actually implement.
What you will find here
- Regulations hub – RBI, CERT-In, SEBI CSCRF, DPDP Act and NPCI/UPI obligations, with key dates and what they mean in practice.

Who this is for
