Challenge

The financial sector is the one that invests the most in cybersecurity in Brazil, with an average company budget of R$1.8 million per year. Driven during the pandemic, the digital transformation increased the risks of cyberattacks and, as such, the client, the largest technological provider of financial services, brought the need to strengthen its security layers, codes, APIs and the like to ensure its high standard of excellence. 

The challenge is to secure a partner who can enhance their cybersecurity systems, helping to mitigate risks and vulnerabilities.

Solution

Qintess' solution consists of applying the Fortify Microfocus tool to the system, identifying, classifying and correcting the vulnerabilities mapped in the scan and making the application observable by inserting visibility of events sent to the log system. An encrypted lock solution will also be implemented to protect sensitive data that travels in the application and solve the security problem in the API that runs on a third-party machine.

Benefits

Scan Fortify

We performed a SAST and DAST scan on client applications using the Fortify tool.

 

Action Plan

The technical team defined a strategy to address the vulnerabilities based on the mapped vulnerabilities.

 

Development

Improvements were made according to the Action Plan.

 

Validation

Together with the client, we present the development for the performance of functional and non-functional tests.

 

Go Live

Publication and monitoring of the solution in the client's production environment.
