Case Study: lifecell Achieves Proactive Security Validation with Picus Security

How lifecell Leverages The Picus Complete Security Validation Platform to Safeguard Ukraine's Telecommunications Landscape

lifecell, a leading Ukrainian telecommunications operator, needed to strengthen its security posture amid escalating cyber threats caused by the war in Ukraine and the relocation of many employees abroad. With a distributed workforce and limited security resources, the company wanted a way to better protect its network, validate controls more efficiently, and reduce manual effort. Picus Security and its Picus Complete Security Validation Platform were selected to help address these challenges.

Using the Picus Security platform, lifecell shifted from reactive to proactive security by simulating thousands of real-world attacks to test firewalls, web application firewalls, and endpoint security controls. The automation significantly reduced the time needed for validation, helped the team focus on strategic work, exposed coverage gaps for vendor follow-up, and provided quantifiable assurance for stakeholders and compliance reporting.
