Case Study: Coca-Cola FEMSA strengthens application security and SOX compliance with CyberRes Fortify on Demand

Fortify on Demand helps minimize security issues through a comprehensive assessment process providing full visibility and control

Coca-Cola FEMSA, the world’s largest Coca-Cola franchise bottler, needed a stronger way to manage application security as it moved its own and partner applications to the cloud. With applications coming from many vendors and a centralized security team overseeing operations across 10 countries, the company wanted a scalable approach to identify vulnerabilities before new applications entered its environment. CyberRes, through its Micro Focus Fortify on Demand service, was selected to help address this challenge.

CyberRes implemented Fortify on Demand, giving Coca-Cola FEMSA a cloud-based application security platform with static, dynamic, and mobile testing plus continuous monitoring. The solution provided clear reporting, full visibility, and an easy process for assessing applications against centralized security criteria, helping the company share actionable remediation guidance with vendors and developers. As a result, Coca-Cola FEMSA improved its security strategy, strengthened SOX compliance, and reduced potential security issues before applications were allowed into production.
