FinTech Cybersecurity, Compliance & Third-Party Risk
Intrix provides FinTech cybersecurity and Third-Party Risk Management services for Australian fintechs, securing supply chains and satisfying APRA CPS 234 obligations. Services cover API security, open banking compliance, CDR readiness, and cloud-native security across Sydney, Melbourne, and nationally.
A single gap is all an attacker needs
The fintech landscape is built on a complex web of third-party vendors, software platforms, and APIs. This interconnectedness creates significant vulnerabilities. An attack on one of your suppliers can provide a backdoor into your platform, compromising your data and your customers’ trust.
Regulators know this. APRA’s CPS 234 places a stringent, non-delegable focus on third-party risk management. You must be able to prove that you are assessing the information security capability of every third party that manages your information assets.

What cybersecurity services do fintechs in Australia need?
Australian fintechs typically require API security testing, third-party risk management, cloud-native security, mobile application security, and compliance advisory for APRA CPS 234, CPS 230, and the Consumer Data Right framework. The exact requirements depend on whether the fintech is APRA-regulated and which regulated entities it partners with. Intrix provides all of these services tailored to the Australian fintech regulatory environment.
How do I meet APRA CPS 234 as a fintech?
Meeting APRA CPS 234 as a fintech requires assessing and documenting the information security capability of every third party that manages your information assets, maintaining an information security policy, and notifying APRA of material control weaknesses within 10 business days. Intrix helps fintechs build structured TPRM programs, prepare compliance documentation, and satisfy CPS 234 obligations through ongoing advisory and managed services.
What is third-party risk management for fintechs?
Third-party risk management for fintechs is the process of assessing and continuously monitoring the cybersecurity posture of vendors, software platforms, and API partners that access or process your data. APRA CPS 234 requires regulated entities to assess the security capability of all such third parties. Intrix delivers structured TPRM programs that meet regulatory expectations and provide auditable evidence of ongoing oversight.
How do I secure open banking APIs?
Securing open banking APIs requires strong OAuth 2.0 and authentication controls, API gateway configuration, penetration testing against credential stuffing and injection attacks, and continuous monitoring for anomalous access patterns. Australia’s Consumer Data Right framework sets specific security standards for accredited data recipients and data holders. Intrix provides open banking API security assessments and remediation aligned with both CDR requirements and APRA CPS 234.
