Automated Vulnerability Management for a Century-Old Engineering and Construction Enterprise
Experion helped an employee-owned engineering and construction enterprise strengthen its security posture through automated and manual vulnerability remediation.
The engagement addressed accumulated vulnerabilities, federal compliance requirements, scanner configuration issues, and patching gaps. Within one year, the client achieved a 70% reduction in vulnerabilities, leading to an expanded scope across network vulnerabilities and endpoints.
An employee-owned engineering and construction company with a 100-year legacy in sustainable infrastructure.
Their work spans engineering, procurement, consulting, and construction services. As their digital environment matured, security visibility, remediation discipline, and compliance readiness became critical to protecting business continuity and strengthening trust across operations.
Challenges and Solutions
Challenges
Solutions
Experion created a balanced approach that combined automated and manual processes to identify, assess, and remediate vulnerabilities. This helped bring discipline, visibility, and repeatability to the remediation process.
We leveraged ITIL practices to improve security and remediation processes, including better handling of new server patching. This gave the client a more structured operating model for vulnerability management.
Experion implemented hardened practices, including TLS/SSL and CIS standards, helping the client strengthen compliance readiness and reduce recurring security exposure.
We helped fine-tune scanner configurations and resolve sync issues between scanners and ITSM tools, improving the reliability of vulnerability tracking and remediation workflows.
Experion introduced hardening practices that helped prevent vulnerability recurrence, supporting more sustainable security improvements beyond one-time remediation.
We optimized the patching cycle and process to cover third-party vulnerabilities more effectively, helping strengthen the client’s broader security posture.
Outcomes
The automated vulnerability management engagement helped the client move from accumulated exposure to a more controlled and resilient security environment.
