Case Study: Virgin Money scales security reviews and deepens threat-driven analysis with Clover Security

Virgin Money - Customer Case Study

Virgin Money, one of the UK's largest retail banks, faced significant challenges in its security review process. The security architecture team was strained by manual, time-intensive reviews of every product and system change against hundreds of control requirements. This checklist-driven approach was difficult to scale, leading to inconsistent results and limiting the depth of security analysis, while developers were burdened with repetitive prep work.

Clover Security implemented its design-led product security platform to automate this process. The solution provided automated, consistent reviews that highlighted only the relevant security controls and contextual threats for each design, making the process four times faster. This allowed Virgin Money's security architects to focus on higher-value analysis and enabled deeper, more meaningful security conversations with developers, all while maintaining the bank's high security standards.
