Case Study: Landsbankinn achieves business-risk management maturity and stronger vulnerability management with Outpost24

Securing Icelands largest Bank From Scanning to Business Risk Management

Landsbankinn, Iceland’s largest bank, needed to replace a legacy vulnerability‑management solution and build a program that addressed security and compliance while showing how vulnerabilities could be exploited and remediated. After evaluating options, Landsbankinn selected Outpost24 and its Web App Security (SWAT) and External Network Security (OUTSCAN) offerings, plus professional services and Red/Blue Team exercises, to deliver a reliable, auditable vulnerability‑management capability.

Outpost24 implemented a three‑phase rollout (deployment, pilot, BAU) combining automated scanning, manual testing (SWAT), OUTSCAN, training, reporting and a Red Team exercise—bringing continuous detection, prioritized risk reporting and knowledge transfer into the bank’s processes. The Outpost24 solution delivered faster, more accurate scans, simplified verification that vulnerabilities were closed, improved developer remediation and helped Landsbankinn shift from reactive patching toward proactive, business‑risk‑focused vulnerability management within the three‑month onboarding period.
