Case Study: Regina International Airport improves network security and efficiency with Horizon3.ai NodeZero

Regina International Airport closes network gaps with Horizon3.ai after uncovering 1,700+ IP addresses

Regina International Airport, a mid-sized Canadian airport, faced the challenge of securing its extensive and segmented technology infrastructure, which included everything from airline systems to passenger Wi-Fi. Their small technology team, led by Manager of Technology Sean McKim, needed an efficient way to identify exploitable vulnerabilities and network leakage without the high cost and infrequency of engaging third-party penetration testers. They turned to Horizon3.ai and its autonomous penetration testing product, NodeZero, to address this.

By implementing Horizon3.ai's NodeZero, the airport gained the ability to run frequent, self-service penetration tests. The solution not only identified vulnerabilities but also provided proof of their exploitability, which helped the team prioritize fixes and justify hardware upgrades. This led to improved security posturing, more efficient budget planning for digital transformation, and significant time savings for the IT staff. The portability and ease of use of NodeZero allowed the airport to do more with its limited resources, providing assurances and a comprehensive view of its environment without needing a dedicated pentester on staff.
