Case Study: whg strengthens cybersecurity and saves £80K with Cymulate

Non-profit Increases Financial Efficiency and Strengthens Cybersecurity Defenses

whg, a UK housing association and non-profit with 850+ employees, needed to improve cybersecurity while staying within a tight budget. Its one-person security team had to evaluate and validate security controls, compare vendors, and keep pace with growing threats without relying only on monthly vulnerability scans and annual penetration tests.

whg chose Cymulate’s automated security validation platform, including breach and attack simulation and automated network penetration testing, to test controls, evaluate new security tools, and assess emerging threats. With Cymulate, whg saved £80K on an XDR purchase, improved visibility into its security posture, increased efficiency through automated testing, and gained ongoing insight into control drift and remediation needs.
