Case Study: Fast-growing U.S. telecommunications provider achieves a formalized, optimized Threat & Vulnerability Management program with NetSPI

Benefits of Vulnerability Assessment with NetSPI

Fast-growing Telecommunication Provider Company engaged NetSPI to address a lack of threat and vulnerability management maturity as the business scaled. The telecom wanted a self-manageable, continuously benchmarked Threat & Vulnerability Management (TVM) program and practical, prioritized recommendations rather than a checklist assessment.

NetSPI performed a phased, in-depth assessment (information gathering, network architecture review, external and internal penetration testing) and delivered a TVM Program Assessment with 15 key recommendations — including appointing an information security lead, implementing quarterly vulnerability scanning, and conducting annual penetration tests — plus tools and a one-day network security architecture review. As a result, NetSPI helped the company move from an ad hoc, reactive approach to a formally defined and optimized TVM program, institute regular internal scans, improve policies and documentation, and (per NetSPI) uncover up to 2x more critical vulnerabilities than top network scanning tools, materially reducing risk and earning executive support.
