Case Study: Spendi achieves secure CDR compliance with DNX Solutions

Building a Secure, Compliant AWS Foundation for Fintech Operations

Spendi, a fintech startup, required a secure and compliant AWS infrastructure to meet strict Australian regulations like ASAE 3150 and Consumer Data Right (CDR). Their challenges included navigating complex compliance frameworks, ensuring robust data security, and building a scalable foundation for future growth. To overcome this, they partnered with vendor DNX Solutions for the implementation of a foundational AWS environment and with AssuranceLab for the auditing process.

DNX Solutions built a secure AWS foundation from the ground up using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and Well-Architected best practices, which included network security, encryption, and budget controls. This enabled Spendi to achieve CDR compliance and become audit-ready in just 5 months, a process that typically takes over a year. The result was a scalable and cost-efficient platform that positioned the fintech for future certifications like SOC 2 and ISO 27001, significantly boosting customer trust and operational agility.
