Case Study: Alfa Bank Kazakhstan achieves PCI DSS compliance with BalaBit Shell Control Box

Alfa Bank - Customer case Study

Alfa Bank Kazakhstan needed to meet PCI DSS requirements for monitoring administrators and third-party contractors accessing cardholder-related systems, while keeping total cost of ownership competitive. The bank turned to BalaBit’s Shell Control Box (SCB) for privileged activity monitoring to record configuration changes and remote access across its PCI DSS-scoped servers and network equipment.

BalaBit implemented SCB in just 2 days, and it went into production protecting dozens of Windows servers and Cisco devices while monitoring access by 20 internal administrators and several external engineers. The solution provided full session recording, auditing, and searchable logs for incident response and forensics, helping Alfa Bank improve data security, reduce technological risk, and enhance service quality and efficiency.
