21st Century Cures Act for Fintech

What 21st Century Cures Act means for Fintech organizations — and how we implement it at the architecture level.

What 21st Century Cures Act Means for Fintech

21st Century Cures Act in Fintech environments carries requirements that go beyond the framework's general provisions. The specific operations of Fintech organizations — their data processing scale, their regulatory relationships, and their operational dependencies — create compliance obligations that engineering teams must address at the architecture level. Generic 21st Century Cures Act compliance that ignores the Fintech context will produce a system that passes audit by a framework-generalist but fails review by an industry-specialist examiner.

Our teams deploy in Fintech environments with 21st Century Cures Act compliance built into the architecture from the first design decision. The compliance controls are not a layer added to an existing system — they are implemented as first-class components that generate evidence continuously as the system operates. The result is a system that is compliant on deployment day, remains compliant as it evolves, and produces audit evidence without manual assembly.
