97.5% Reduction in Vulnerabilities
Within four years, they reduced overall vulnerabilities by 97.5%, and entirely eliminated critical findings.
Security Embedded in Development
Security is now heavily integrated into their development processes, with checks at every push that consistently identify vulnerabilities before production.
Releasing Secure Products
Now they deploy products with no known vulnerabilities, allowing them to confidently grow their business.
The DevSecOps Decision
A software company composed of multiple fintech SaaS products needed more than a once-a-year snapshot of their security posture. Their primary goal was to ensure that every product release was secure, specifically, that no known vulnerabilities were being pushed to production.
Relying solely on annual penetration tests left gaps throughout the year, making it difficult to maintain continuous security assurance across multiple development teams.
To close that gap, they shifted to a DevSecOps model. This approach allowed their security team to test code and product changes before release, reduce risk proactively, and maintain confidence that each deployment met their security standards.
"We chose DevSecOps because the traditional annual testing model just wasn’t enough. With multiple fintech applications in production, we needed a way to embed security into our development lifecycle, something continuous, scalable, and built to catch issues before they ever made it to production."
Why They Chose TrollEye Security for DevSecOps
When evaluating vendors, the software company needed a partner that could deliver more than basic testing. They were looking for a provider that could offer ongoing support, scale across multiple products, and keep costs in check. TrollEye Security stood out by offering exactly that, a flexible, cost-effective DevSecOps solution that didn’t require building an internal team.
In addition to pricing and capabilities, the working relationship played a key role. TrollEye's ability to provide targeted release testing, actionable findings, and strong communication with their teams made them the clear choice.
A Transformed Development Process
Since partnering with TrollEye Security, the software company has completely overhauled its approach to product security. What began as a limited program of annual penetration tests has evolved into a fully integrated DevSecOps process that embeds security into every stage of development. Today, every code push triggers targeted security testing, with findings validated by expert analysts and remediated before reaching production.
This shift has fundamentally changed how they build software. Vulnerabilities are now identified much earlier in the pipeline, before they can introduce risk in a live environment. Developers have clear guidance, security has become part of the development culture, and the results speak for themselves: over the past four years, they have achieved a 97.5% reduction in vulnerabilities across all severities, including a complete elimination of critical issues.
By moving to continuous penetration testing and proactive remediation, they not only strengthened their security posture but also improved development speed and confidence. With DevSecOps, they can continue to scale their business with confidence in the security of their products.
“Many of the issues identified during release testing are vulnerabilities that likely would have made it to production otherwise. There’s always a chance our internal tools might have caught them, but we don't know for certain. Having these additional checks in place has proven very useful for identifying what might otherwise go undetected”
