DORA-aligned by architecture —
operate the data you can't read.
Protect KYC records, payment data, and customer files with client-side encryption, format-preserving encryption, and customer-controlled keys — so cloud, vendors, and AI tools process data they cannot read.
Infrastructure access shouldn't mean financial-data access.
Sensitive fields stay sealed — and still usable
Format-preserving
FF1 (NIST SP 800-38G) keeps PAN, IBAN, and account formats intact while sealing the value — your schemas and validations keep working.
Third-party risk down
Vendors, cloud, and ICT providers receive ciphertext. Infrastructure access does not become customer-data access.
You hold the keys
Customer-controlled custody; with HYOK CVS the key vault and decryption run in your own infrastructure.
How ASTIS maps to financial-sector mandates
ASTIS is designed to support these obligations and to reduce scope. It is not itself a PCI certification or a compliance program, and does not replace your own controls.
Vendors process ciphertext, not data
DORA · ICT & third-party risk
Sub-processors, cloud, and ICT third parties receive sealed artifacts — not readable customer data. Customer-controlled key custody and a tamper-evident audit trail are designed to support DORA-aligned ICT third-party-risk controls.
Keep cardholder data out of systems
PCI DSS · scope reduction
Format-preserving encryption (FF1) and tokenization keep PAN, IBAN, and account fields usable but unreadable — reducing the systems in PCI scope. ASTIS never receives the plaintext field.
Encryption and access control by default
NIS2 · encryption & access
Business data is encrypted client-side; scoped keys gate every operation. Only protected artifacts cross the boundary.
Evidence your regulator can verify
Audit & supervisory evidence
A hash-chained, tamper-evident audit trail of cryptographic and key operations, exportable for supervisors and auditors.
Minimize exposure, keep residency
GDPR · minimization & residency
Only sealed artifacts travel; EU/EEA data plane, with HYOK CVS keeping key operations and residency on your own infrastructure.
Where it fits across the institution
KYC & customer onboarding
Encrypt or format-preserve identity and customer records client-side; downstream systems process data they cannot read.
Payment & PAN protection
Apply FF1 format-preserving encryption to card and account fields so the format survives but the value is sealed — shrinking PCI scope.
Inter-vendor & subprocessor sharing
Exchange records with partners and ICT providers as ciphertext; they operate the pipeline without reading the data.
AI & analytics on masked data
Run models and analytics over FPE / tokenized fields so AI tools receive only what your policy allows.
Honest boundary
- • ASTIS is designed to support DORA, NIS2, GDPR, and EU AI Act obligations and to reduce PCI scope. It is not a PCI certification and does not replace your compliance program.
- • Format-preserving encryption and tokenization reduce the systems in scope — they do not by themselves eliminate scope or produce certification.
- • Verifiable today via internal dogfood and independently verifiable artifacts; SOC 2 Type II is in progress (CASA Tier 2 complete). Not yet a third-party audit.
Keep financial data where it belongs — with you.
Let's scope a deployment for your KYC, payment, and third-party-risk needs.
