Challenge

Welbi serves some of the largest global senior living organizations. As a lean team focused on the quality of the product, they hit a common growth stage where security investment is a must-have in order to retain and attain clients. 

Improving their overall security posture with SOC 2 and penetration testing became key priorities for the executive and technical teams as their clients’ security requirements increased. Pentesting with Software Secured also unlocked additional enterprise expansion opportunities across the US. 

Solution

Welbi was looking for the right combination of budget, technical expertise and vendor availability to solve this business problem. Finding a company who provides a very hands on approach throughout the entire process that was also vouched for by their network connections led them to Software Secured’s comprehensive penetration testing. 

Benefits

Given Software Secured’s main client base are startups, their processes and communication demonstrate respect for the resource constraints Welbi was facing (3 month timeline to get SOC 2 Type 1, working towards Type 2). 

Results

Through the penetration testing, some vulnerabilities were discovered. Software Secured notified Welbi, enabling them to remediate high priority vulnerabilities immediately, prior to report delivery, furthering their SOC 2 Access Control efforts and protecting client data. 

The closer we are with the people that find the problems and know the answers, the better it will be on our side.”
