Case Study: Solaris improves application security and developer alignment with Cycode

Solaris Improves Application Security Posture and Developer Alignment with Cycode

Solaris, an embedded finance platform based in Germany, faced significant application security challenges due to its fragmented and difficult-to-maintain tooling, which generated a high volume of false positives. This situation frustrated developers, hindered compliance with regulatory requirements, and prevented the implementation of effective security controls. They needed a scalable, developer-friendly solution to consolidate their security tools and integrate seamlessly with their on-premises CI/CD pipelines.

By implementing the Cycode platform, Solaris consolidated its security tooling, drastically reduced false positives, and embedded contextual, risk-based guardrails into its development process. The results were substantial, including a 99.4% SLA compliance for critical vulnerabilities, a 61% reduction in MTTR for high-risk issues, and a 98.7% reduction in triage time. Cycode enabled a strong DevSecOps culture, with most developers responding to alerts in under 30 minutes and nearly half of all high-risk violations being auto-remediated.
