SWIFT established the Customer Security Program (CSP) to actively support customers in the fight against cyber-attacks. Cybersecurity controls were put in place to strengthen end-point security and combat cyber-fraud by securing the systems such as laptops, middleware, and software used to connect to the SWIFT network.
As of 2020, SWIFT mandates that attestations submitted under CSCFV2020 are independently assessed through either an internal or external assessment. Self-attestation will be considered as non-compliant after 2020.
