Case Study: Cybersecurity Leader achieves fast, confident releases with StackHawk

Cybersecurity Leader Moves from 4-Hour Scans to Fast, Confident Releases

Cybersecurity Leader, a provider of digital identity and anti-fraud solutions, was hindered by slow legacy security scans (1.5–4 hours), complex SOAP API configuration, poor visibility into vulnerabilities, and manual work to integrate scans with their on‑prem GitLab. To address this, they selected StackHawk and its developer‑first Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) to modernize application security testing.

StackHawk was integrated into their on‑prem GitLab pipelines to deliver fast, automated DAST with native SOAP support, clear configuration feedback, and CI/CD-friendly workflows. The result was dramatically reduced scan times, fewer manual scripts, improved visibility into API and application vulnerabilities, and more empowered development and security teams—enabling proactive vulnerability management and faster, more confident releases.
