Case Study: a U.S. mortgage lending company improves enterprise and third-party risk management with FortifyData

FortifyData Uses Live Assessment Data to Improve Enterprise and Third-Party Risk Management for a Mortgage Lender

A U.S. mortgage lending company was facing challenges with its legacy security ratings platform, which provided inaccurate and outdated assessments of its enterprise and third-party cyber risk. The system's slow data updates, misattributed assets, and failure to reflect remediated vulnerabilities motivated the company to seek a new solution. They selected FortifyData for its platform, which offers continuous direct assessments and monitoring.

The FortifyData solution provided the mortgage lender with timely, accurate scans of its own systems and third-party vendors, eliminating false positives and misattributions. This allowed the security team to focus on actionable remediation steps. The company also utilized FortifyData's email security feature to monitor for domain spoofing risks. The result was a significantly more accurate view of their security posture and a greatly improved customer service experience.
