Case Study: Healthcare Technology Company achieves confidence in network protections with AttackIQ

Automated Attack Simulations Build Healthcare Technology Firm’s Confidence in Network Protections

Healthcare Technology Company, a Swiss healthcare technology firm, faced an immature security program with no regular control assessments, vulnerability scanning, or red-team resources. Its new information security architect evaluated breach-and-attack simulation vendors and selected AttackIQ, adopting the AttackIQ Security Optimization Platform to get realistic, repeatable attack simulations and integrations with existing firewall and endpoint protections.

Using AttackIQ, the three-person infosec team deployed routine testing within weeks and now runs about 500 simulations per month aligned to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. AttackIQ’s platform delivered faster, data-driven visibility into control gaps, enabled prioritized investment decisions and ad‑hoc executive reporting, reduced merger/onboarding risk for returning subsidiaries, and provided a comprehensive penetration‑testing regimen with minimal staffing impact—resulting in stronger organizational confidence and measurable risk reduction.
