Case Study: Large Software Developer Company achieves rapid remediation and reduced M&A risk with NetSPI Resolve™

Large Software Developer Company - Customer Case Study

Large Software Developer Company, in the final stages of acquiring another development firm, needed a fast, thorough security assessment of two web applications plus external and internal penetration testing and a detailed vulnerability report within just a few days. They engaged NetSPI and its Resolve™ platform to perform the due diligence under severe time pressure.

NetSPI deployed a six-person onsite team to run concurrent automated and manual tests, leveraging NetSPI Resolve™ to correlate findings and generate rapid reports. Within hours the team discovered critical issues — persistent XSS, a SQL injection that exposed over 500,000 customer records, a guessed VPN credential and a cracked domain admin hash — presented initial findings within 24 hours, and prompted the acquirer to delay IT integration until remediation was completed, materially reducing transactional and security risk.
