Security Transformation for Global Men’s Health Advocacy
The Client
Our esteemed client is a leading not-for-profit organization dedicated to transforming the face of men’s health globally. Their significant contributions have amassed over $1.1 billion for their cause.
The Challenges
Facing mission-critical tasks such as fundraising campaigns, the client encountered challenges in securing these applications. Additionally, there was a need for skilled personnel to implement cybersecurity practices and monitor compliance. Navigating multi-region regulatory compliance added another layer of complexity.
Our Solutions
We conducted a thorough evaluation of current coding and deployment practices. Implementing a shift-left approach, we integrated security across the entire life cycle of application architecture. Leveraging threat modeling, we identified gaps and proposed remediations/controls. Integration of security tools/platforms at various quality gates and the deployment of automation frameworks ensured a seamless code build/release process.
Business Imapct
The outcomes were substantial:
- Elevated cloud security, aligning with NIST CSF and NIST 800-53 standards
- A significant increase in the security score of production accounts to 85/100 within 6 months
- Enhanced cloud security through rigorous hardening practices and image standardization
- Automated security enhancements with SAST and DAST via CI/CD pipelines, alongside CSPM configuration reviews for streamlined processes
- Implementation of continuous monitoring of the Cloud Infrastructure, promptly detecting and addressing security deviations from approved baselines.
