Key benefits of Fluid Attacks' Continuous Hacking for Protección

Protección manages the personal data and contributions of millions of users. Therefore, for this company, security is nonnegotiable. In order to secure their software, Protección is using Fluid Attacks' Continuous Hacking. This solution gives Protección a constantly updating picture of its software’s security, allowing its development team to fix the identified issues promptly before going into production. Therefore, Protección’s preventive security posture is maximized to prevent the information of its customers from being compromised.

Protección needs to mitigate risks to prevent security incidents

Like every firm in the financial sector, Protección needs to mitigate risks to prevent security incidents from taking place. Therefore, it requires a solution that allows it to find out the risks to its Internet-facing applications, understand such risks and effectively manage their mitigation. Following this preventive approach to cybersecurity, the company can secure the information of its customers and keep their trust.

Why Fluid Attacks is this Protección's best choice

Protección has been implementing Fluid Attacks’ Continuous Hacking since 2019. This solution identifies the risk exposure in software corresponding to security vulnerabilities early and during the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC). To accomplish the accurate detection of security issues, Fluid Attacks deploys a combination of automated and manual security testing. Furthermore, Continuous Hacking allows Protección to have a deep understanding of the detected vulnerabilities so that it can remediate them promptly. This way, remediation takes place simultaneously with development and not at separate times. To have stricter control over the security of their deployments, they have Fluid Attacks’ DevSecOps agent enabled, which breaks the build to prevent vulnerable code from reaching production. Every time after remediating, Protección can request unlimited reattacks to verify whether the security issues were indeed solved.

Protección has achieved effective and rapid mitigation of risks to its software

Thanks to Fluid Attacks' Continuous Hacking solution, Protección is informed continuously and in detail about vulnerabilities detected in its software during the SDLC. This has allowed the company to mitigate risks to its software effectively and rapidly. Overall, Protección’s vulnerability management process has become much more efficient. This is mainly due to having continuous assessments instead of requesting them recurrently over the year. The updated knowledge of its software’s security status enables Protección to decide to solve any issues that are reported and not deploy vulnerable software into production. Accordingly, Protección avoids incidents in production environments, which generates great value for the customers and IT operators.
