Regulatory Compliance

SEBI Compliance Audit (CSCRF)
Cyber Security & Cyber Resilience Framework

Overview

In India’s dynamic capital markets ecosystem, cybersecurity and operational resilience are critical to maintaining investor confidence and market integrity. The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) mandates regulated entities to implement robust cybersecurity controls under the Cyber Security & Cyber Resilience Framework (CSCRF).

CSCRF requires stock exchanges, depositories, stock brokers, mutual funds, and other intermediaries to establish comprehensive controls across cybersecurity, data protection, incident response, monitoring, and resilience.

At Kalkin Intelligence, we deliver end-to-end SEBI CSCRF compliance audits and advisory services—helping organizations strengthen their cyber posture, meet regulatory expectations, and ensure continuous compliance.
