About these case studies. Each one is an illustrative scenario that shows the kind of work and results our engagements deliver. They do not describe named clients.
A yearly test describes your security on one day. Teams that ship often change their attack surface far faster than that, so issues introduced after the test go unseen until the next one. Automated scanning alone does not fill the gap, because it cannot confirm what is actually exploitable.
