Case Study: Telefónica achieves 20% production performance gain and improved application quality with Kiuwan

Telefonica LatAm achieved an improvement in the quality and security of their applications which resulted in a 20% performance in production

Telefónica, a global telecommunications leader operating across LATAM and beyond, faced the challenge of managing and securing over 1,000 applications across more than 20 technologies while standardizing SLAs and quality measurement without disrupting the development lifecycle. To achieve consistent application security, compliance and visibility across its extensive development teams, Telefónica turned to Kiuwan for an automated, enterprise-scale approach to code quality and security analysis.

Kiuwan implemented an automated enterprise software analysis and certification process integrated into Telefónica’s development pipeline, enabling standardized, executable quality measurements, actionable remediation plans, and SLA tracking linked to delivery quality and suppliers. As a result of Kiuwan’s solution, Telefónica gained clear stakeholder visibility into defects and vulnerabilities, the ability to baseline technical debt, cost and time, and reported a measurable 20% improvement in production performance.
