How we protected web interfaces of a Top 10 U.S. cloud hosting provider

Problem

Modern web applications provide a huge attack surface, and account for over 80% of cyber-attack targets.

With over 400,000 hosting clients, potential impact of a security incident affecting such high number of websites would be catastrophic.

Solution

SoftSeq performed a set of rigorous security testing activities that spanned software architecture, code, infrastructure, and configuration.

Result

In over 3 years, the client hasn’t suffered a single security incident related to the system SoftSeq reviewed.

Security issues of fundamental nature were discovered at each layer of the system, requiring SoftSeq engineers to be deeply engaged with the client to find solutions catering to business, technical, and security requirements - all at the same time.
