Cutting Cyber Risk by 38% in
6 Months

The Stakes: Growing Threats, Limited Visibility

With over 50,000 connected assets across offices and remote workers, the security team faced an urgent challenge:

  • Unpatched critical vulnerabilities were stacking up weekly.
  • IT and Security were working from separate data sources, causing delays.
  • Regulatory audits flagged “high risk” posture in multiple regions.
Why Our Platform Was Chosen

The client needed:

  • A single source of truth for asset and vulnerability data.
  • Automated prioritisation of fixes by actual business risk, not just CVSS score.
  • Scalable visibility across all geographies without agent sprawl.

Key decision factors:

  • Proven reduction in Mean Time to Remediate (MTTR) from prior customers.
  • Integration with existing SIEM and ITSM tools.
  • Executive dashboards for compliance reporting.
Implementation in Action

  1. Onboarding & Discovery: All assets identified and categorised in 3 weeks.

  2. Automation Set-up: Critical vulnerabilities auto-assigned to IT owners with SLA timers.

  3. Risk-Based Prioritisation: Focus shifted from “patch everything” to “patch what matters most.”

  4. Executive Alignment: Weekly metrics briefings enabled leadership to track real ROI.

Outcome Snapshot

Within 6 months:

  • 📉 Cyber risk score reduced by 38%.
  • ⏱ MTTR for critical vulnerabilities cut from 96 hours to 28 hours.
  • 🌍 Asset coverage increased from 62% to 96%.
  • 💰 Estimated £350k annual savings in avoided breach remediation costs.

Client Perspective
