Case Study: Breast Cancer Now strengthens IT security with DigitalXRAID penetration testing

Breast Cancer Now strengthens security with DigitalXRAID through regular testing of 80 research projects

Breast Cancer Now, a UK-based charity funding research and providing support for those affected by breast cancer, needed to understand its security posture to meet regulatory and insurer requirements. To proactively identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities in its infrastructure, the charity engaged the security vendor DigitalXRAID for regular penetration testing services.

DigitalXRAID conducted thorough internal and external infrastructure penetration tests, which included reconnaissance, attack simulation, and an assessment of encryption security. The result was a comprehensive report that provided clear, prioritized findings and remediation steps. This process gave Breast Cancer Now deeper visibility into its security, allowing it to proactively address gaps and significantly increase its security maturity, complementing other measures like Cyber Essentials certification.
