CUSTOMER CASE STUDY

Scaling Continuous Pen Testing Across a Global Enterprise

Most enterprise pen testing programs test what the budget allows, not what the estate needs. A global multinational operating in 100+ countries, with a portfolio of 2,000+ web applications (60% internal, 40% external), ran into that wall: a consulting-led program that was costly, slow, and reached only 40% of its applications in a given year. This case study shows how one platform closed the gap the consulting model could not, moving the full portfolio under continuous, exploit-validated testing.

What’s Inside the Case Study?

Coverage went from 40% to 100% of a 2,000+ application portfolio: No application was left untested for budget reasons. Critical applications moved from an annual cadence to quarterly, with less-critical apps tested annually and on-demand runs available at any time.
Per-test cost dropped 80% and lead times fell from weeks to days: Flat-rate pricing replaced the $2K to $20K per-engagement range, and average lead time per pen test came down from 2 to 4 weeks to 2 days. The same program budget now covers the entire estate.
False positives stabilized below 5%: Against the 40% to 70% common to the customer’s prior DAST tools, AI agents reported only exploitable findings with proof, including chained attack paths and business logic flaws that had gone undetected through earlier expert engagements.
