Case Study: a credit union boosts SecOps validation and reduces exercise setup time with Cymulate

Credit Union cuts incident response setup time by 60% with Cymulate

The customer, a credit union based in Arizona, faced challenges in proactively validating its security controls and threats. Its SecOps team lacked the resources for an in-house red team and found annual pen tests insufficient for continuous validation. They needed a solution to automate testing, prioritize vulnerabilities, and prove compliance. The credit union implemented the Cymulate platform to address these needs.

Using Cymulate, the credit union automated live-data exercises and integrated continuous threat exposure management (CTEM). The solution reduced incident response exercise setup time by at least 60%, provided independent validation of security controls, and enabled the team to prioritize vulnerabilities based on actual exploitability. Cymulate also delivered a clear ROI, helping to justify new security investments to the executive board.
