Enterprise Infrastructure Penetration Test

The Challenge

A regional banking institution needed to validate the security of their internal core banking network prior to a major regulatory audit. They suspected legacy vulnerabilities existed but lacked visibility.

Our Approach

We conducted a grey-box internal network penetration test. Our team simulated a compromised employee workstation to attempt lateral movement toward the swift payment gateway.

The Outcome

Identified a critical privilege escalation path via a misconfigured Active Directory GPO. The client remediated the risk within 48 hours, preventing potential full domain compromise. The audit was passed with zero critical findings.

Technology / SaaS

24/7 SOC Monitoring Engagement

The Challenge

A high-growth SaaS platform was suffering from "alert fatigue" with their existing MSP, missing real threats buried in thousands of false positives daily.

Our Approach

We deployed our managed SOC with custom detection engineering. We tuned out 95% of noise by whitelisting benign administrative behaviors and focusing on behavioral anomalies.

The Outcome

Reduced Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) from 4 hours to 15 minutes. Successfully detected and blocked a credential stuffing attack targeting administrative accounts within the first month of operation.

Healthcare

Web & API Security Assessment

The Challenge

A telemedicine provider launched a new patient portal API. They needed assurance that patient health information (PHI) was segmented correctly and inaccessible to unauthorized users.

Our Approach

We performed deep manual logic testing on the API, specifically testing for IDOR (Insecure Direct Object Reference) and broken access controls that automated scanners miss.

The Outcome

Discovered a high-severity IDOR vulnerability that allowed cross-tenant data access. We provided a proof-of-concept and worked directly with their developers to implement proper object-level authorization.
