“It was more than I was used to under normal circumstances” – Mr Holger Sontag said
As the journey progressed, our cybersecurity experts diligently simulated real-world cyber threats, strategically probing every corner of Privé Technologies’ digital infrastructure. The process involved comprehensive testing, meticulous analysis, and the application of cutting-edge techniques to unearth hidden vulnerabilities.
Compared to other vendors, the Viettel Cyber Security team impressed Mr Sontag with our speed and enthusiasm. “Most of the pentests have a clear start time, the pentester will inform us when he starts, so we can look at and see our logs to know what we have to filter out and then there’s an end to it. And then he’s going to inform us when he stops the testing. but in this case, a Whatsapp chat was open, then we got a lot of additional response and possibility to interact with the team”, said Mr Holger. It was more than I was used to under normal circumstances
By addressing vulnerabilities and reinforcing compliance, we fostered a culture of regulatory confidence, ensuring the Privé Technologies operations align seamlessly with industry standards. “I’m very, very satisfied with the speed. This case was exactly what we needed, and we’re very grateful for that” – Mr Holger Sontag said
In the grand tapestry of cybersecurity, Privé Technologies’ journey serves as an inspiring testament to the symbiotic relationship between challenges, solutions, and benefits. Through strategic collaboration and innovative approaches like Penetration Testing, businesses like Privé Technologies pave the way for a more secure and resilient digital future.
