A Gurgaon-based IT reseller and services aggregator offering cloud migration, solution reselling, and managed services to small and mid-sized enterprises (SMEs). The client secured a deal to become a preferred technology implementation partner for a major private sector bank in India.
The bank enforced strict Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) and vendor security compliance processes in line with RBI cybersecurity norms.
While the client had strong technical delivery capabilities, they lacked:
-> Formal security documentation
-> A dedicated InfoSec framework
-> Familiarity with bank-grade compliance processes
They needed to pass a 120-point TPRM evaluation within just 4 weeks to secure the project.

-> Reviewed the bank’s onboarding checklist and RBI-aligned due diligence forms.
-> Conducted a readiness audit covering network, endpoint, access control, and data flows.
-> Implemented secure VPN, centralized logging, strong password policies, and endpoint monitoring.
-> Advised on user access segregation and encryption for client-facing systems.

-> Information Security Policy
-> Business Continuity & Incident Response
-> Asset Management & Data Classification
-> Acceptable Use & Access Control
-> Supported documentation prep and technical form submissions
-> Represented the client during 2 rounds of discussions with the bank’s InfoSec and legal teams
-> TPRM Clearance Achieved in just 3.5 weeks
-> Onboarded as an Approved Vendor by the bank’s IT procurement team
