Case Study: Global Commercial Real Estate Services Company achieves rapid PeopleSoft security and compliance with Waratek

Secure Aging Software Without Source Code Changes

Global Commercial Real Estate Services Company, a publicly traded global commercial real estate services firm with nearly $10B in annual revenue and 50,000+ employees, was relying on an aging PeopleSoft platform and facing known deserialization vulnerabilities. With vendor patches no longer available, the company needed a faster, more cost-effective way to secure critical systems and stay compliant. Waratek was brought in to help protect the application without disrupting operations.

Waratek implemented its Secure compiler-based runtime application security solution, using ARMR security rules to address deserialization as well as common risks like XSS, SQL injection, path traversal, process forking, and unnecessary file and network access. The solution required no source code changes and was deployed quickly, delivering protection in live production in eight business days. Waratek helped the client remediate all critical and high vulnerabilities, with instant Day One protection and minimal performance impact.
