Background

A fintech client needed to undergo a security audit before onboarding a major banking partner. With no internal security engineers and no tools in place, they had just 2 weeks to demonstrate offensive security validation readiness.

• Urgent Audit Deadline Needed to simulate penetration testing and submit evidence within 14 days to onboard a strategic banking partner.
• No Internal Red Team Setup Lacked security engineers, tooling, or processes to simulate real-world attack scenarios.
• Manual Readiness Was Unscalable External vendors were slow and expensive. Manual testing and reporting would delay onboarding and spike costs.
