The Challenge 

As Castles Technology prepared to launch a new generation of payment terminals across global markets, ensuring robust cybersecurity and regulatory compliance was critical. The challenge lay in identifying and mitigating potential vulnerabilities across complex software layers - while maintaining performance, transaction integrity, and customer trust.

Castles sought a trusted security partner with deep expertise in embedded systems and secure device design to rigorously assess and strengthen the resilience of their platform ahead of deployment.
