This case study explores the successful collaboration between Insight Regulatory and Maly in the bespoke development and maintenance of Cerberus, a compliance platform designed specifically for the financial services industry. Insight Regulatory, a specialist in regulatory guidance for small and medium-sized financial businesses, needed a trusted partner to ensure its platform met high security standards and could scale effectively. Maly’s expertise enabled the deployment, support, and enhancement of Cerberus, resulting in a robust and reliable tool that helps clients comply with complex regulatory requirements.

“Maly are a great team to work with, they know what they are doing and we trust them with the development and maintenance of our software tool.” – Lesley Kumar & Palvinder Gill, Partners & Co-Founders, Insight Regulatory
About Insight Regulatory

Their focus is on helping clients implement robust governance and streamlined processes. They also ensure accurate reporting. This helps clients meet strict UK and international regulations.
About Cerberus
To support their work, Insight had created its own bespoke MVP platform called Cerberus, which was specifically designed to help financial institutions remain fully compliant with the Senior Managers and Certification Regime (SMCR) rules. The platform provides real-time compliance activity monitoring and reporting. In addition, it offers simplified staff certification management, as well as mapping and tracking of governance roles and responsibilities.
The Challenge
Insight needed a local partner in East Anglia to deploy, manage, support, and enhance Cerberus. The partner had to execute these tasks with the highest security standards because of the sensitive data involved, while ensuring robustness and scalability to support numerous users across multiple clients.
The Solution
Maly quickly grasped the Cerberus design and subsequently engineered a secure solution to host it on AWS. After the deployment, they promptly established the necessary operational and support services to ensure a robust and reliable system. Furthermore, Maly developed a “sandpit” test environment for the bespoke development and testing of new features, including enhanced audit reporting, improved email certification, and better notifications for overdue compliance steps.
The Result
Insight now had a robust, reliable, and scalable compliance platform version of its Cerberus platform. This platform served its financial services clients effectively. They also had a skilled technical team. This team was ready to support any demonstrations or implementations. These efforts were secured through their business development activities.
