Case Study: Global Atlantic Financial Group strengthens network and application security with NetSPI

Global Atlantic Financial Group builds a purple team with NetSPI after second-year findings

Global Atlantic Financial Group, a leading U.S. retirement and life insurance company, faced challenges in identifying significant technical risks within its network and applications despite previous security assessments. To improve its security program's ability to find and address these risks, the company partnered with cybersecurity vendor NetSPI for comprehensive penetration testing and other services.

NetSPI implemented a multifaceted solution including penetration testing as a service (PTaaS), threat modeling, red team engagements, and detective control testing. The results were immediately valuable, with NetSPI uncovering previously undetected high-risk vulnerabilities and providing detailed attack chains. This partnership enabled Global Atlantic to strengthen its detective controls, justify hiring two additional staff members to form a new security team, and build a business case for continued investment in its security infrastructure.
