How STACKTITAN Helped
STACKTITAN’s evaluation of the organization showed justification for concern relative to technical debt and shadow IT, introduced as a result of M&A activities and organic expansion. As a result, a security assessment was positioned to identify assets and potential risk exposure within both the public-facing and internal enterprise environments. Assessment services included:
- Vulnerability Assessment / Asset Discovery
- Network Penetration Testing
- Threat exposure training workshop
STACKTITAN was able to provide detailed insight regarding the organization’s current technical risk exposure, their resilience to attacks, and suggestions for asset monitoring improvements. STACKTITAN has established itself as a trusted advisor and continues to engage with the organization to help improve their security posture.
