IDENTIFIED & REMEDIATED INFRASTRUCTURE RISK TO MEET REGULATORY COMPLIANCE FOR A LEADING MANUFACTURER OF AUTOMOBILES AND COMMERCIAL VEHICLES

CLIENT

 

One of the world's leading manufacturers of automobiles and commercial vehicles.

BUSINESS OBJECTIVE

The client aimed to improve the audit process and enable continuous monitoring of security vulnerabilities with effective remediation processes. However, during the transition phase, they discovered that some of the IT estate had not been patched for years and found over 70,000 vulnerabilities in the server environment. Moreover, they only installed current patches, which failed to install some because older vulnerabilities were being fixed.

SOLUTION

 

  • Vulnerability and compliance scans to meet regulatory and compliance standards for NIST and CIS Benchmarks.
  • Intelligent vulnerability prioritization reduced the risk of data breaches.
  • Assess vendor, system and user-originated vulnerabilities across information systems.
  • Planning and execution of patching in a phased manner based on business dependency and vulnerability criticality.
  • Integration with InfraGenie™ and SNOW for effective task distribution and better visibility of progress.
  • Remediation prioritization by calculating business impact to each asset based on identified vulnerabilities.
  • Create different reports for different audiences - from executives' scorecards to detailed drill-downs for IT teams.
  • Timely configuration of the existing VA toolset to achieve full benefits.
  • Provide context & insight about each vulnerability, including trends, predictions, and potential solutions.

BENEFITS

 

Reduction in more than 80% of vulnerabilities in period of 3 months

Visibility of previously unidentified risks along with current risk vectors in the environment

Planned and expedited reduction of vulnerabilities in the environment.

Planning and decisions on future roadmap of infrastructure and applications upgrades/changes required to reduce risks.
