SEBI CSCRF, run in one India-native control set
Comply ships SEBI's Cyber Security and Cyber Resilience Framework as a first-class module — mapped to DPDP and your global frameworks in one control set — so regulated entities stay resilient and reporting-ready.
Typical readiness: 8–12 weeks to a defensible baseline
What it is
The SEBI Cyber Security and Cyber Resilience Framework (CSCRF) is the Securities and Exchange Board of India's consolidated cyber-security standard for its regulated entities. Built around cyber-resilience goals — Anticipate, Withstand, Contain, Recover and Evolve — it sets graded requirements covering governance, controls, monitoring, incident reporting and periodic audit, with obligations scaled to the size and type of the entity.
Who needs it
SEBI-regulated entities — stock brokers, depository participants, mutual funds and AMCs, registrars, stock exchanges, depositories and other market intermediaries — that must meet the CSCRF and report to the regulator.
Get SEBI CSCRF-ready, then stay that way
Connect your stack, map controls once, and let continuous monitoring keep evidence fresh — across every framework you run.
Governance & accountability
Capture the cyber-security policy, board and committee oversight and roles the CSCRF expects, as living documentation an auditor can follow.
Resilience goals mapped
The CSCRF resilience goals — Anticipate, Withstand, Contain, Recover and Evolve — are mapped to automated controls so you can show each is implemented and operating.
Incident reporting
Log incidents, assess severity and run the reporting timeline to SEBI, with the evidence trail the regulator and your auditor expect.
One control set with DPDP
Run the CSCRF alongside India's DPDP Act, CERT-In and your global frameworks in one control set — the unified India-plus-global wedge global tools do not offer.
Continuous evidence
Pull live evidence from 30+ connectors with a no-code builder for trading and custom systems, so your posture stays current between audits.
Periodic audit ready
Continuous monitoring keeps your CSCRF posture healthy between the periodic audits SEBI requires, so each review is a confirmation rather than a rebuild.
CSCRF as a resilient, evidenced programme
SEBI’s CSCRF is built around resilience — anticipating, withstanding, containing and recovering from cyber events — and that demands controls you can prove operate continuously. Comply delivers that:
- Govern with the policy, oversight and roles the CSCRF expects.
- Implement the resilience goals as automated, evidenced controls.
- Report incidents to SEBI on time, with a complete evidence trail.
- Unify CSCRF, DPDP, CERT-In and your global frameworks in one control set.
Because the SEBI module shares Comply’s evidence engine, your SOC 2 and ISO 27001 controls feed your CSCRF posture, and your DPDP safeguards are satisfied in the same India-native programme.
SEBI CSCRF questions, answered
It is SEBI's consolidated Cyber Security and Cyber Resilience Framework for its regulated entities, organised around resilience goals — Anticipate, Withstand, Contain, Recover and Evolve — with graded, risk-scaled requirements. Comply turns it into an operational, continuously evidenced programme.
Yes — CSCRF is a first-class, India-native module in Comply, in the same platform and control set as DPDP, RBI, CERT-In and global frameworks. Global-only tools like Vanta and Drata do not cover SEBI at all.
Yes. The CSCRF controls overlap substantially with SOC 2 and ISO 27001 — governance, access, monitoring, incident response. Comply maps a single control set across them, so your existing security work counts toward CSCRF rather than being redone.
SEBI-regulated entities handling personal data also fall under DPDP, and CERT-In's incident rules apply across India. Comply runs all three from one control set, so CSCRF, DPDP and CERT-In are satisfied together — an India-native advantage no global-only vendor matches.
Beyond SEBI supervisory and enforcement action, entities handling personal data also face DPDP penalties of up to ₹250 crore for failing to maintain reasonable security safeguards. Comply addresses CSCRF and DPDP together so both regimes are covered.
One platform, every framework
Comply maps a single control set across all of these — add a framework without adding work.
