Fortifying Compliance Tech with Continuous Cyber Resilience

The Challenge

With its rapid growth and the sensitive nature of its clientele, the company faced evolving security and operational challenges:

Safeguarding financial and audit data hosted in multi-tenant cloud environments.
Ensuring secure integrations with third-party accounting platforms and data connectors
Meeting compliance expectations related to APRA, ASIC, and other regulatory frameworks.
Protecting cloud-native infrastructure from misconfigurations, credential abuse, and unauthorized access.
Managing code security risks across multiple agile dev teams and deployment pipelines.
Securing customer portals used for real-time report generation, submissions, and collaboration.

To maintain customer trust and regulatory alignment, the organization required an integrated and continuous approach to both security and compliance.

Threat Deception with XDR+

Deception was used to detect and delay threat actors:

Created decoy superannuation audit files and admin portals to identify unauthorized access attempts.
Launched honey user accounts and sandbox databases that signaled privilege escalation and credential stuffing efforts.
Detection response times improved by 52% compared to earlier baselines.

Security Compliance Enablement with GSOS

GSOS helped the customer achieve:

Continuous alignment with APRA’s CPS 234 and ISO 27001 security controls.
Streamlined evidence collection for client and auditor assessments.
Dashboards for internal stakeholders to track control effectiveness and remediation ownership.

DevSecOps Enablement

To embed security early in the software lifecycle, the DevSecOps integration included:

Static and dynamic application testing (SAST/DAST) integrated into the CI/CD pipeline.
Secret scanning and IaC validation for Terraform and Kubernetes configuration files.
Container hardening across development and staging environments.
Developer enablement programs on secure coding and threat modeling.
Integration with Invinsense telemetry for real-time feedback loops from prod to dev.

As a result, the organization reduced code-to-production risk and improved time-to-remediate issues before release.

CTEM in Action with Invinsense OXDR

CTEM Stage	Outcome
Scoping	Identified over 2,300 digital assets, including microservices, APIs, and client data endpoints.
Discovery	Found 34 critical weaknesses, primarily in exposed S3 buckets, weak IAM policies, and legacy APIs.
Prioritization	Highlighted 12 high-risk scenarios, including audit data leakage and insecure DevOps permissions.
Validation	Simulated threats like cross-account data access and token theft to validate real-world risk.
Mobilization	Closed 91% of critical vulnerabilities within 21 working days using automated and manual patching.

Solutions Used

The client deployed the full stack of the Invinsense cybersecurity platform
