Microsoft Intune Alternative for Banks: BDDK and Data in Türkiye

BDDK requires primary and secondary systems to stay in Türkiye. Compare Intune’s cloud model with Moftgate’s on-premises deployment for patching, logs and outsourcing rules.

Banks in Türkiye follow the BDDK Regulation on Banks’ Information Systems and Electronic Banking Services (Official Gazette, 15 March 2020). It requires primary and secondary systems to be kept in Türkiye. Cloud services and outsourcing follow separate rules. Intune has no on-premises edition, so a bank must complete a cloud and outsourcing assessment before it uses Intune.
