// Case study

How we helped a venture-backed technology company get ahead of its security.

A fast-growing product team, no dedicated security hire, and enterprise customers starting to ask hard questions. Here is what we did about it.

// The challenge

Growing fast, with security on the back burner.

The company was scaling quickly, with a product that customers increasingly trusted with sensitive data. Security had understandably taken a back seat to shipping, and there was no dedicated security hire in place.

Enterprise customers and investors were beginning to ask harder questions, and the team needed to get ahead of the risk without slowing down the roadmap.

// What we did

A program, not a one-off.

Cloud security review

A deep review of their AWS and GCP environments, turning drift and misconfiguration into a ranked, fixable list.

Penetration testing

Manual testing of their applications and infrastructure, with every finding verified after remediation.

Virtual CISO

Ongoing leadership to set the roadmap, answer customer and investor questions, and keep momentum.

Incident containment

When an active intrusion surfaced, we helped contain it quickly and close the gap that let it in.

// The results

Harder to breach, easier to trust.

Over the engagement we surfaced and helped remediate hundreds of findings across their cloud environments, brought endpoint coverage to full, and contained an active intrusion before it could do damage.
