How does Solace use PTaaS

Given the nature of their platform, and the types of clients Solace serves, Solace leverages PTaaS in the following ways:

‍

1. Support for Distributed and Hybrid Environments

Solace operates across complex, distributed architectures, including on-premises, multi-cloud, and hybrid deployments. This broad environment significantly expands Solace’s attack surface, requiring a security partner that understands the threats and the risks. Software Secured’s threat-modeling-led penetration testing proved to be the ideal fit.

"Software Secured’s ability to deeply understand our hybrid infrastructure and tailor their penetration testing accordingly has been invaluable. Their security expertise ensures that we proactively identify and mitigate vulnerabilities before they become critical threats." — Vinay Venkataramana Chary - DevScOps Lead - Solace

2. Enabling Rapid and Secure Development

As a core component of enterprise architectures, Solace must continuously innovate while maintaining stringent security standards. By integrating penetration testing into their Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), they can push new features to production more quickly and confidently. This proactive security approach reduces the feedback loop for developers, leading to improved software quality and a more resilient platform.
