Case Study: GreenSky achieves faster time-to-market and automated application security with Contrast Security

Securing the Digital Commerce Ecosystem for Merchants, consumers, and banks

GreenSky, a fintech headquartered in Atlanta that powers point-of-sale financing for merchants, consumers and banks, faced challenges modernizing its software delivery: moving from on‑premises VMware to AWS, breaking monoliths into microservices, and eliminating slow, manual SAST/DAST security reviews. To shift left and detect Java and open‑source vulnerabilities earlier in the SDLC, GreenSky adopted Contrast Security’s solution, deploying Contrast Assess to weave automated application security into its DevOps processes.

Contrast Security integrated Contrast Assess into GreenSky’s Docker images, Jenkins pipelines and orchestration with Chef on ECS/Fargate, giving teams real‑time vulnerability visibility via the Contrast Console and automating remediation workflows. The implementation saved roughly 10 hours per week for 2–3 people, consolidated DevOps tools, enabled a successful AWS migration and faster, more secure releases—accelerating time‑to‑market while improving visibility, library management and compliance.
