FAQs

Q: How does Dev House Australia ensure APRA CPS 234 compliance for financial software?

APRA CPS 234 compliance is a key focus of our systems architecture. We protect sensitive financial information by enforcing robust data encryption at rest (using AES-256) and in transit (via TLS 1.3) with keys managed through Azure Key Vault or AWS KMS. We establish granular role-based access controls, configure multi-factor authentication (MFA) via Microsoft Entra ID, and implement detailed audit logs within Microsoft Dataverse or secure cloud databases. This provides continuous security monitoring and rapid threat isolation to satisfy APRA auditors.

Q: What is the typical timeline for developing a secure custom FinTech application?

Development timelines vary based on scope and complexity. A focused, secure web portal or customer dashboard may take 6 to 10 weeks, whereas a full-scale core banking platform or multi-party transactional exchange involving real-time processing and deep integrations can take 3 to 6 months. We construct detailed technical roadmaps and resource estimates during our discovery phase, ensuring complete project transparency before coding starts.

Q: Can you integrate custom FinTech applications with legacy core banking databases?

Yes. We specialise in building secure APIs and high-throughput middleware that connect modern web/mobile interfaces with legacy core banking platforms, ERP systems, and third-party accounting applications. We have extensive experience working with SWIFT protocols, New Payments Platform (NPP) APIs, and local financial data interchange formats used across the Australian and global banking sectors.

Q: How do your mobile financial applications comply with security-first UX guidelines?

We implement a multi-layered security model at the device level. This includes integrating native biometric authentication (FaceID and TouchID/Fingerprint), configuring on-device hardware Secure Enclave storage via Keychain Services, and executing encrypted local databases like SQLCipher. We ensure that no sensitive transaction or account credentials are cached in plain text, delivering a highly secure experience that satisfies both user expectations and security auditors.

Q: What is the Consumer Data Right (CDR) and how does it affect Open Banking in Australia?

The Consumer Data Right (CDR) is Australia’s national Open Banking framework, allowing consumers to securely share their transaction histories and financial records with accredited third parties. Unlike the European PSD2 framework, CDR requires strict compliance with specific Australian security profiles, data standards, and consent management pipelines. Our engineers design, build, and integrate CDR-compliant APIs, enabling your financial platform to securely interact with the national Open Banking ecosystem.
