The Singapore WealthTech platform building trust infrastructure for financial advisers earns independent third-party assurance for how it secures and governs its AI, with support from compliance platform Zavior.
12 July 2026 – Guardian Independent Certification Group (GICG) is proud to announce that Kiros Technology Pte Ltd has attained the CSA Cybersecurity Certification – Cyber Trust Mark. Kiros, a Singapore-based WealthTech company building an AI-powered operating system for licensed financial advisers, was assessed across the Classical Cybersecurity, AI Security and Cloud Security pillars, for the development of software for wealth management professionals and related services. The certification is a deliberate step in the company’s work to put trust at the centre of how financial advice technology is built and run.
For the financial advisers and wealth management firms that Kiros serves, and for the clients who sit behind them, the certification offers independent assurance: the way Kiros builds and runs the platform that holds their sensitive financial and personal data has been examined against a recognised national cybersecurity standard. For Kiros’s partners, it provides a clear and auditable reference point for their own vendor due diligence, technology-risk reviews and regulatory reporting.
Kiros brings client engagement, advisory workflows and compliance together in a single secure platform for licensed financial advisers. As the wealth management industry adopts AI and cloud technology at pace, the company works from a simple conviction: advanced technology is only worth having in financial advice if advisers and their clients can trust it. The Cyber Trust Mark places that trust on an independently verified footing, and its assessment of Kiros’s AI Security practices speaks directly to how the company applies AI behind the adviser relationship.
The CSA Cyber Trust Mark is the more advanced of the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore’s two cybersecurity marks, and is intended for organisations with more extensive digital operations. It takes a risk-based approach, matching an organisation’s cybersecurity preparedness to its risk profile. In April 2025, CSA broadened the mark to cover three further areas of digital technology: Cloud Security, AI Security and Operational Technology Security. By securing the AI Security and Cloud Security pillars, Kiros has had its AI-driven and cloud-hosted services assessed against this enhanced standard.
Kiros was supported through its certification by Zavior, a Singapore-based RegTech company whose AI-powered platform helps digital-first businesses manage governance, risk and compliance and prepare for certifications such as the Cyber Trust Mark. Pairing Kiros’s wealth management technology with Zavior’s compliance and AI-governance expertise allowed the requirements of the standard to be met efficiently, without slowing the product team down.
Kiros underwent an independent audit by GICG, the certification body appointed by CSA, to assess its conformance with the requirements of the Cyber Trust Mark. The assessment found that the company’s cybersecurity policies, processes and controls across classical cybersecurity, AI security and cloud security were effectively implemented and met the standard.
Tan Sim Bee, Head of Certification at GICG, said: “Our role is not simply to provide assurance, but to independently verify that organisations meet recognised standards of trust and governance. Kiros demonstrated this convincingly throughout the assessment process. What stood out was its commitment to embedding cybersecurity and AI governance into the way it operates and builds client confidence, rather than treating compliance as a checklist exercise. As the financial services sector increasingly adopts AI-driven technologies, this level of accountability and governance is exactly what the Cyber Trust Mark is designed to recognise. After more than 30 years in conformity assessment, our mission remains the same: To enable clients to protect brands and mitigate risk through our reliable, dependable, responsive and quality assurance service.”
Daniel Wong, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Kiros Technology, said: “A financial adviser holds some of the most private details of a person’s life. The moment you put AI into that relationship, the fair question is whether the trust still holds, and we did not want to be the ones answering it. Earning the Cyber Trust Mark, and the AI Security pillar in particular, means an independent authority has examined how we protect client data and how our AI is governed. For the advisers who build their practice on Kiros, that is the difference between our word and an audited standard.”
Aidan Chan, Co-founder of Zavior, said: “We are seeing a wave of companies building quickly with AI, and the ones that earn lasting trust are those that take governance seriously early. Our part was to make that path clear for Kiros, so the team could keep moving while getting the fundamentals right. Watching them achieve the Cyber Trust Mark, with the AI Security pillar, is exactly why we do this: security and compliance that open doors rather than slow you down. It is what responsible AI looks like in practice.”
As AI and cloud technology become central to how financial advice is delivered, independent certification is becoming part of how firms choose and trust the technology they rely on. Kiros intends to maintain and build on its cybersecurity and AI-governance practices as it grows across the wealth management industry, with the Cyber Trust Mark underpinning the assurance it offers advisers and their clients.
