Case Study: Credit Human strengthens security and reduces testing costs with SHI International Corp.

Credit Human shifts from annual to monthly penetration testing with SHI

Credit Human, a San Antonio-based credit union, faced the challenge of needing to move beyond annual, compliance-focused penetration testing to a more continuous and proactive cybersecurity posture. Their CISO, Joshua Light, needed to achieve this without overextending the team or the budget, requiring a true partner rather than just another vendor. They partnered with SHI International Corp. for strategic cybersecurity services.

SHI introduced Credit Human to a new penetration testing provider offering better quality at significantly reduced costs, enabling a shift from annual to monthly testing without increasing spend. SHI also connected the credit union with a vendor for custom tabletop exercises. The results included major cost savings, the establishment of a continuous security improvement loop, and enhanced cross-team collaboration and incident response readiness.
