PERFIL

akaunt is a Colombian fintech company founded in 2022. It started as a project aimed at making it easier for average Latin American users to have savings accounts in US dollars. akaunt offers an accessible, intuitive and, above all, secure and transparent digital wallet solution to its users. It is regulated and monitored by the Digital Asset Business Act 2018 of Bermuda, one of the world's most advanced legislations in this industry.

akaunt is fully committed to the security of its users

As part of such a regulated industry, especially in favor of end-user security, akaunt decided to subscribe to Fluid Attacks' Continuous Hacking solution by early 2023. Specifically, they turned to the Advanced plan, which integrates AppSec testing tools, AI and a hacking team, for identification and support in the remediation of security vulnerabilities in their software. The constant risk exposure mitigation from this all-in-one solution has always allowed akaunt to stay at least one step ahead of threat actors from the beginning.

Key benefits of Fluid Attacks' Continuous Hacking for akaunt

Among the most outstanding benefits that Continuous Hacking has brought to akaunt are the following:

  • Noticeable improvement in the detection and remediation of security vulnerabilities in their software (they have been able to recognize vulnerabilities of which they had no knowledge)

  • Increased visibility into their attack surface and awareness of their cybersecurity posture

  • Enhanced vulnerability prioritization and management capabilities

  • Fluid Attacks' platform has been user-friendly and has provided them with sufficient functionality to monitor and control their security environment efficiently

  • The reports received on the platform have been clear and concise, allowing all stakeholders to understand the findings and remediation strategies easily

Fluid Attacks is among akaunt’s best choices

Apart from Continuous Hacking, akaunt has integrated security solutions from AWS specifically designed to identify weaknesses and flaws in its cloud infrastructure. Additionally, they have incorporated various vulnerability scanners into their continuous integration pipelines, enabling early detection and resolution of issues in their source code and infrastructure as code. This comprehensive approach allows akaunt to view its security from multiple angles, ensuring the highest level of protection.

It is crucial for akaunt to keep using Continuous Hacking, as this solution allows it to comply with diverse international security requirements. Fluid Attacks' solution has successfully complemented other security measures akaunt has implemented in order to address its specific infrastructure and data protection needs and standards. Thus, they have ensured robust, holistic prevention and defense against relentless cyber threats.

akaunt is a glittering example of high responsibility for security

While organizations applying Fluid Attacks' solution show an average above 250 thousand units of risk exposure (CVSSF), akaunt, at the time of writing this case, presents only about 9.5 units. This extraordinary value places them as the most secure company currently using Continuous Hacking. Likewise, the mean time to remediate (MTTR) vulnerabilities by akaunt's development team is 12% of the average MTTR of all organizations. All of these are indications that this company is exceptionally committed and proactive when it comes to managing cybersecurity risk exposure.

akaunt recommends Fluid Attacks

akaunt currently has no more applications or other types of software to be assessed by Continuous Hacking. Still, the team is quite willing to expand the use of this security solution when necessary. They have found Continuous Hacking to be practical and effective in mitigating risks as quickly as possible and meeting their security objectives. Furthermore, they have found the experience exceptional and believe that other companies from different sectors could also benefit significantly from this proactive and continuous approach to cybersecurity, so they feel really confident in recommending Fluid Attacks.

“Thanks to the Continuous Hacking solution, we have achieved a risk exposure coverage of almost 100%, positioning us as one of the best companies in terms of cybersecurity among Fluid Attacks' customers.”
