Case Study: a police department strengthens cybersecurity with Ridge Security’s automated pentesting

Automated Pentesting for Strengthening the Cybersecurity of Police Department

The ICT Division of a leading city police department faced significant cybersecurity challenges, including the constant evolution of cyber threats and a shortage of skilled personnel to conduct manual penetration testing. To proactively identify security gaps before they could be exploited, the department turned to Ridge Security and implemented their RidgeBot automated pentesting solution.

Ridge Security's RidgeBot was deployed to scan both public-facing web systems and the private internal network. The automated tool identified vulnerabilities such as injection flaws and misconfigurations, and even exploited them to measure risk. This implementation provided the police department with early detection of threats, saved significant time and resources, and offered better visibility into their network security for improved risk management.
