Success Stories
These anonymized examples illustrate the practical value of identifying attack paths, control failures, and program gaps before they become incidents.
For a world-renowned hotel and resort organization, TruSec identified a combination of technical weaknesses that enabled compromise of an enterprise-level administrative account despite NAC, firewalls, intrusion prevention, and third-party security monitoring.
Outcome: The client mitigated the identified attack path within an hour of notification.
For an international online retailer, TruSec identified application weaknesses that exposed archived invoices and order details. The issue had remained present for more than three years despite previous internal and external testing.
Outcome: The vulnerability was addressed before it could be exploited by a malicious actor.
For a nationwide property and casualty insurer, TruSec identified critical software vulnerabilities that could have enabled unauthorized access to financial performance data and private policyholder information.
Outcome: The client received prioritized technical guidance to correct the vulnerable controls.
For a multi-state financial institution with approximately $65 billion in assets, TruSec identified weaknesses in staff adherence to physical and logical security procedures. The exercise compromised 55% of targeted facilities and obtained access to physical and electronic documents containing non-public financial information.
Outcome: The institution used the findings to strengthen procedures, awareness, and facility controls.
A public higher-education institution used TruSec’s sensitive-data discovery services to identify critical information assets across its networks and support regulatory compliance requirements.
Outcome: The client gained a clearer basis for applying appropriate safeguards to sensitive data.
For a multinational automotive manufacturer, TruSec supported a SOX 404 self-audit of core AS/400-based applications. Half of the applications had not been previously audited.
Outcome: The audit was completed on time and within budget, with no exceptions identified by the reviewing Big Four firm.
TruSec has delivered information security awareness programs and seminars to personnel, executive teams, and board members across the United States, Canada, and Latin America.
Outcome: Clients reported stronger awareness and increased governance support for security initiatives.
Through combined penetration testing, social engineering, and approved facility-breach exercises, TruSec has identified weaknesses in data-protection practices and security-awareness programs across multiple industries.
Outcome: Risk-prioritized reports enabled clients to implement practical mitigation strategies quickly.
