AccuKnox, a Zero Trust Security platform provider, has announced that SabPaisa, a digital payments company authorised by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), has adopted its AI-powered cloud security platform to strengthen the security of its payments infrastructure.

SabPaisa becomes the latest in a growing list of financial services organisations turning to AccuKnox to satisfy rigorous compliance mandates while defending against both current and emerging cyber threats. The partnership comes at a time when India's digital payments ecosystem is expanding rapidly, with UPI alone processing over 10 billion transactions monthly, underscoring the national significance of securing payment infrastructure. As an RBI-regulated entity, SabPaisa is subject to stringent data protection and operational resilience requirements under the central bank's cybersecurity guidelines for payment system participants. The company set a strategic objective of hardening its security posture to ensure full compliance with RBI regulations while maintaining the integrity and availability of its payment processing services.

Following a comprehensive evaluation of available options, SabPaisa determined that AccuKnox delivered the most unified and complete approach to addressing its combined security and compliance requirements.

AccuKnox Zero Trust Security Platform

AccuKnox's Zero Trust Security platform is structured around several tightly integrated yet loosely coupled modules, allowing clients to select one or more based on their specific requirements:

• CNAPP (Cloud Native Application Protection Platform): CSPM, CWPP, CIEM, CDR, KSPM, KIEM, and GRC
• AI Security: AI-SPM, AI-DR, AI-Red Teaming, Agentic AI, AI Identity, AI Data Security, and AI GRC
• AI SOC
• Agentic AI SOC
• Data Security: DSPM
• Application Security: ASPM (SAST, DAST, SCA, SBOM)
• Foundational Capabilities: SIEM and Secrets Management

This modular architecture enables organisations to scale their security deployments incrementally, adding layers of protection as their threat landscape and regulatory obligations evolve. The platform's emphasis on Zero Trust principles—operating on the premise of continuous verification and least-privilege access—reflects a broader industry shift among financial institutions moving away from perimeter-based security models toward architectures designed to contain lateral movement if breaches occur.

AccuKnox, founded in 2019 and headquartered in San Jose, California, focuses on agentless Zero Trust security for cloud-native environments, serving enterprises across financial services, healthcare, and technology sectors.
