Customer quote

“Automated vulnerability scanners have limited value. The combination of technology, automation and human expertise is what makes River Security’s Active Focus unique. The proactive and prioritized reports and deep insights provided by their team have truly elevated our cybersecurity posture.”

– Lars K. Knutsen, Head of IT Security – Kredinor

Kredinor recently signed a two-year Active Focus agreement.

Deliveries

River Security first delivered a complete Digital Footprint analysis, as an initial step to map out the attack surface. Later on, Kredinor chose a long-term partnership and collaboration with River Security’s Active Focus service, for the unique combination of continuous Attack Surface Management and Always-on-Penetration Testing.


Outcomes

Kredinor values the proative approach of Active Focus, which provides a multi-layered defense against cyber threats. While a SOC helps them react after incidents, Active Focus combines automation with manual testing to identify vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.

Kredinor also appreciates the prioritized findings from Active Focus, which allow them to address the most critical vulnerabilities first. The portal provides detailed and at the same time actionable reports.

They find the ease of access to River Security’s expertise, including principal penetration testers, ensuring that any identified vulnerabilities are swiftly addressed with expert guidance.


Rapid Response

Active Focus not only provides Kredinor with a comprehensive overview of their digital assets but also notifies them if there are vulnerabilities that can be exploited. Kredinor particularly values River Security’s rapid response to these critical issues, including direct phone calls as per the escalation matrix ensuring that potential threats are mitigated promptly. An example of this effectiveness is when a third-party vulnerability was identified and reported, showcasing the thoroughness of River Security’s assessments.

 

Access to Offensive Security Expertise

With River Security as a close partner, Kredinor experiences significant benefits from immediate access to top-tier offensive security experts. River Security provides swift responses and continuous knowledge transfer, significantly enhancing Kredinor’s internal capabilities and security posture. The dedicated support from River Security allows Kredinor to focus on their core operations while maintaining a robust IT security strategy.
