Travel Rule compliance platform
EU
ISO 27001 certification
Through its Travel Rule compliance platform, CryptoSwift enables exchanges, custodians, wallets, and other virtual asset service providers to securely exchange compliance information under the EU Transfer of Funds Regulation (TFR), MiCA, and FATF guidelines. Trust has always been at the core of its business.
As the company expanded across Europe and began engaging larger customers, particularly banks and asset managers obtaining CASP authorizations, security certifications appeared more and more often in procurement and due diligence conversations. And because CryptoSwift’s Travel Rule service is considered a Critical or Important Function (CIF) under DORA, European Crypto-asset Service Providers need a vendor whose cybersecurity posture aligns with the regulation.
“As we started engaging larger customers, specifically banks and asset managers obtaining CASP authorizations, security certification became an increasingly important part of the conversation. They wanted assurances that our processes and controls meet recognized standards.”
CryptoSwift already maintained strong internal security practices. What it needed was independent proof in the form of an ISO 27001 certification, and a compliance partner that matched its size without unnecessary complexity or overhead.
The team evaluated several platforms, including Vanta and two other European providers. Vanta felt built for larger organizations. And as an EU-headquartered company serving DORA-affected customers who care where their data resides and which third parties are involved, CryptoSwift wanted a fully European compliance chain.
“We looked at several providers, including Vanta and other European alternatives. Vanta felt like overkill for our requirements. With Copla, we found the right balance between software, expert guidance, and a genuine partnership approach.”
“The onboarding process was quick. Within days, we had access to the platform, completed an initial review of our documentation, and gained a clear understanding of what was already covered and where the gaps were.”
Beyond the certification itself, the project helped CryptoSwift formalize internal processes, identify improvement opportunities, and gain clearer visibility into its security controls, documentation, and governance, making it easier to answer security questionnaires and demonstrate compliance to customers and partners.
“The process helped us understand exactly where we stood, what needed improvement, and how to build a stronger operational foundation. The certification was the outcome, but we got actionable recommendations to improve our security posture from the very beginning.”
With ISO 27001 in place, CryptoSwift is better positioned to support enterprise sales conversations and meet the expectations of customers operating under MiCA and DORA. In the crypto sector, certification signals trust not only to prospective customers but also to the regulators who scrutinize the vendors of supervised businesses.
“ISO 27001 is about more than certification. It’s about demonstrating to customers that security, privacy, and operational resilience are built into how we operate. As we continue growing in regulated markets, that trust becomes increasingly valuable.”
A recognized trust signal for customers and regulators operating under MiCA and DORA.
