Penetration testing and incident readiness for a digital services provider

Tested a fast-growing fintech's web, mobile and API security, fixed critical weaknesses and prepared its teams to respond to a breach.

Challenge

The provider was growing fast on web and mobile platforms and had never independently tested its security. It also had no tested plan for responding to a breach.

What we did

  • Performed vulnerability assessment and penetration testing of web, mobile and API assets.
  • Reported findings by business risk, with clear remediation guidance for the engineering team.
  • Assessed security maturity against NIST CSF and set a cyber roadmap.
  • Developed incident response playbooks and ran a tabletop exercise with management and technical teams.

Outcome

Critical weaknesses were fixed before they could be exploited. Teams now know their roles in an incident, and leadership has a prioritised security roadmap.
