What is SWIFT CSP?

SWIFT CSP (Customer Security Programme) is a framework established by SWIFT to enhance the security of its users' environments and protect the integrity of the SWIFT network. It defines mandatory security controls that SWIFT users must implement to mitigate cyber risks and prevent fraudulent activities. The CSP is designed to ensure a baseline level of security across the SWIFT community, reducing the attack surface and minimizing the potential for successful attacks. The framework is periodically updated to address emerging threats and vulnerabilities. It is commonly used by financial institutions to secure their SWIFT infrastructure, comply with SWIFT's security requirements, and demonstrate a commitment to protecting against cybercrime.
