CBS-1 Digital Account Access & Management
Introduction
In an increasingly digital banking environment, uninterrupted access to customer accounts is
fundamental to maintaining trust, financial stability, and regulatory compliance.
For Boost Bank, a digital-first financial institution, the ability for customers to securely access and manage their accounts through digital channels represents a core operational capability.
This chapter examines CBS-1: Digital Account Access & Management as a critical business service within Boost Bank’s operational resilience framework.
It outlines the detailed sub-processes (Sub-CBS) that collectively enable secure onboarding, authentication, profile management, embedded banking access, fraud monitoring, credential recovery, and service continuity. By decomposing this high-level service into structured, traceable components, the chapter clarifies how digital access is delivered, controlled, monitored, and safeguarded.
The chapter further presents a structured mapping of the underlying business processes that support this critical service. Each Sub-CBS reflects an essential operational element required to ensure availability, integrity, confidentiality, and resilience of digital banking access.
From identity verification and secure login mechanisms to device management, alerting systems, and regulatory logging, the content demonstrates how interconnected processes collectively sustain continuous customer access.
This breakdown also highlights key risk concentration areas and operational dependencies, forming the basis for resilience testing, impact tolerance setting, and incident response planning.
Purpose of the Chapter
The purpose of this chapter is to define and document the end-to-end business processes that constitute Boost Bank’s critical business service, CBS-1 Digital Account Access & Management, within the context of operational resilience.
It aims to help the reader understand how digital account access is operationally structured, where vulnerabilities may arise, and how resilience controls are embedded across the service lifecycle.
By the end of this chapter, the reader should be able to identify the key sub-processes supporting digital access, appreciate their role in safeguarding customer trust and regulatory compliance, and recognise how this service fits into Boost Bank’s broader resilience framework.
Below is a detailed breakdown of the critical business service (CBS) for Boost Bank’s “CBS-1 Digital Account Access & Management”, showing the key Sub-CBS (Sub-Critical Business Services / detailed end-to-end business processes) that make up this digital banking service.
These Sub-CBS represent processes that are essential to operational resilience — if disrupted, they could materially affect Boost Bank’s ability to provide continuous digital banking access and management to customers.
This breakdown aligns with common banking digital services and operational resilience expectations (e.g., regulators require financial institutions to identify and map end-to-end dependencies and processes for each critical business service)

Sub-CBS Code |
Name of Sub-CBS |
Description of Sub-CBS |
|
1.1 |
Account Onboarding & Registration |
End-to-end process for new customer digital account creation, including eKYC, phone number verification, biometric or selfie verification, setting username & PIN, loading initial identity documents, and capturing eligibility criteria. Key for ensuring valid customer identity and regulatory compliance. |
|
1.2 |
Authentication & Access Control |
All processes enabling secure login and access, including multi-factor authentication (OTP, device binding), biometric login support, session management and access revocation. This ensures only authorised users have access to accounts. |
|
1.3 |
Profile & Account Maintenance |
Customer-initiated updates to personal details, contact information, security settings, and account preferences through digital channels (app/embedded banking interface). |
|
1.4 |
Embedded Banking Integration |
Processes enabling Boost app users to open and manage Boost Bank accounts without needing a separate app install (embedded digital banking in the main fintech app). Supports seamless onboarding and account access. |
|
1.5 |
Security & Fraud Monitoring |
Real-time monitoring and alerting for suspicious login attempts or transactions, risk scoring, account lock/freezing, fraud detection, and customer notification to protect digital accounts. |
|
1.6 |
Password & PIN Reset / Recovery |
Self-service or assisted flows for customers to reset login credentials, bank PINs, or biometric authentication settings in a secure manner to maintain account access continuity. |
|
1.7 |
Device & Session Management |
Processes to bind/unbind devices, manage active sessions across platforms, and enforce session timeouts or device blacklisting for compromised devices. |
|
1.8 |
Alerts & Notification Services |
Digital communication channel processes (in-app alerts, SMS, email) triggered for successful logins, access changes, failed attempts, or suspicious activities. |
|
1.9 |
Regulatory Compliance & Logging |
Logging, audit trails, and system monitoring to meet regulatory and internal control requirements, including resilience documentation and post-event reporting. |
|
1.10 |
Service Availability & Continuity Management |
IT monitoring and operational processes ensuring high availability (load balancing, failover systems, backups) for digital access channels to minimise downtime and manage resilience incidents. |
Explanation of Scope
- The above Sub-CBS capture customer-facing and core operational processes needed for users to access and manage their Boost Bank digital accounts via the Boost Bank app or embedded banking in the Boost fintech ecosystem.
- These processes are critical from an operational resilience standpoint because disruption in any could materially impair customer access, banking continuity, regulatory compliance, or security — core aspects that resilience planning aims to protect.
In conclusion, Digital Account Access & Management is more than a customer convenience feature—it is a mission-critical service that underpins Boost Bank’s digital operating model.
By systematically mapping the Sub-CBS components of this service, this chapter establishes a clear foundation for operational resilience planning, risk assessment, and service continuity management.
Understanding these detailed processes enables the organisation to proactively manage disruptions, strengthen controls, and ensure that customers maintain secure and reliable access to their financial services even during adverse operational events.
