Case Study: GEA scales security to 150+ developers in 45 minutes with Aikido

Scaling security to 150+ developers in just 45 minutes

The customer, GEA, faced significant challenges in scaling security for its digital team of over 150 developers. Their previous security tools required heavy integration and constant maintenance, which did not scale effectively and slowed down development. GEA needed a seamless, developer-friendly solution to integrate into their CI/CD pipeline without requiring extensive DevOps expertise. They chose Aikido to address these challenges.

By implementing Aikido’s security platform, GEA onboarded all of its developers in just 45 minutes. The solution provided crucial features like automated false positive filtering, which removed 95% of the noise, and AI AutoFix, which enabled the team to resolve a vulnerability in a record five minutes. Aikido’s deep integration with their existing tools, like Azure DevOps, allowed GEA to achieve strong security with minimal disruption, significantly reducing the effort, time, and cost associated with their security processes.
