Secure Communication for Financial Services and Insurance
Financial services firms operate under some of the most demanding communication governance requirements globally - DORA, MiFID II, NIS2, FCA electronic communications rules, and market abuse regulations all intersect with how firms manage internal messaging. Sanket provides encrypted, audit-ready communication that protects market-sensitive information, satisfies ICT resilience obligations, and eliminates the regulatory exposure of executives communicating through unmonitored consumer apps.
Sector Risk Indicators
Sanket closes all four vectors with zero-knowledge encryption, sovereign deployment, and admin governance.
The Communication Problem
Why Industry communication is uniquely high-risk
Unresolved risks
DORA-aligned out-of-band communication pathway for ICT incident response and business continuity
Encrypted protection for M&A discussions, trading strategy, earnings intelligence, and boardroom deliberations
FCA-aware electronic communications: administrator-governed, retention-controlled, and auditable
NIS2 Article 21 incident management support: encrypted incident response channels independent of primary infrastructure
Sanket closes the gap
End-to-end encryption prevents market-sensitive communication from being accessible to platform operators
Whitelabel deployment gives compliance teams control over user identity, data residency, and retention periods
Eliminates regulatory and reputational risk of executives coordinating on unmonitored consumer messaging apps
Privacy Architecture
Financial services communication routinely contains information that is simultaneously market-sensitive, client-confidential, and regulatory-sensitive. When this information flows through consumer messaging apps, firms create regulatory exposure: potential market abuse risk from unrecorded communications, GDPR data residency breaches, and FCA supervisory deficiencies for unmonitored business communication.
Security Model
DORA requires financial entities to maintain alternative communication pathways during ICT disruptions. Sanket provides that independent encrypted out-of-band channel - operational even when primary email and collaboration systems are affected. Combined with end-to-end encryption and a zero-knowledge server model, Sanket meets the confidentiality requirements expected of regulated financial-sector communication.
Deployment Path
Financial institutions deploy Sanket.Work as a compliance-aligned communication platform for executives, risk teams, and incident response groups. For systemically important institutions with stricter isolation requirements, Sanket.Enterprise supports on-premise deployment with full infrastructure ownership and no external cloud dependency.

Deployment outcomes
What organisations in compliance-aligned encrypted communication for regulated financial teams achieve
Satisfy DORA Articles 11-12 ICT business continuity obligations with a tested, encrypted out-of-band communication pathway independent of primary systems
Protect market-sensitive, M&A, and client-confidential information by moving executive communication into a governed, auditable encrypted channel away from consumer apps
Reduce FCA, NIS2, and MiFID II communication governance risk by replacing unrecorded consumer messaging with a retention-controlled, policy-managed platform
How does Sanket support DORA ICT resilience requirements for financial firms?
DORA Articles 11-12 require financial entities to maintain alternative ICT communication arrangements for crisis situations when primary channels are unavailable. Sanket functions as an independent out-of-band encrypted channel for executives and incident response teams, operable independently of email, Microsoft 365, or compromised primary systems.
How does Sanket address FCA concerns about consumer app use for business communication?
Sanket provides administrator-governed, encrypted communication with configurable retention policies and audit trails. Unlike WhatsApp or iMessage, Sanket is deployed under a formal data processing agreement as an organisational platform - not a personal consumer tool - which aligns to FCA expectations for recorded and governed business communication.
How does Sanket protect market-sensitive information in executive communication?
End-to-end encryption ensures only intended device recipients can decrypt messages - not the platform operator, transit provider, or third-party analytics services. Administrators govern who can access executive channels, protecting M&A discussions, trading decisions, and strategic briefings from unauthorised access.
Can Sanket be the incident response communication channel during a cyber attack?
Yes. During a cyber incident where primary collaboration systems may be compromised or under investigation, Sanket provides an independent encrypted channel for incident response teams to coordinate without using the systems potentially accessible to the threat actor.
What retention controls does Sanket provide for compliance purposes?
Administrators configure retention periods at channel and platform level. Messages beyond the configured period are automatically deleted, supporting your documented retention schedule. Retention settings can be configured to align to FCA, MiFID II, and internal compliance requirements.
