Case Study: ING strengthens blockchain platform security with Andersen's penetration testing

ING secures blockchain platform with Andersen in 2 months

ING, a global bank, approached Andersen with a challenge: they required penetration testing services for their blockchain-based financial software. The project involved a complex infrastructure distributed across several countries and featured numerous API integrations. A significant hurdle was the lack of a dedicated test environment, meaning all testing had to be carefully conducted on the live production system.

Andersen performed a comprehensive penetration test of the web platform and infrastructure using tools like Nessus, Acunetix, and Checkmarx. Their solution successfully identified critical security vulnerabilities, including arbitrary API calls without authorization and an insecure Docker infrastructure. This proactive testing by Andersen secured the platform by uncovering these serious problems before they could be exploited.
