Why UltraViolet for Retail and Consumer Brands

Offense and Defense, Operate as One Integrated Program

Bring offensive testing and defensive operations together so each makes the other stronger. Red team findings feed directly into SOC detections, while blue team telemetry reshapes how the red team tests next, creating a continuous feedback loop that gets smarter and stronger with every iteration.

Sharpen SOC Detections With Red Team Findings
When offensive testing uncovers a viable attack path, such as abusing a help-desk workflow or exploiting an exposed API, findings help refine SOC detections and response playbooks.
Test AI Systems Against Real Attack Paths
Apply AI threat modeling and adversarial testing to models, pipelines, agents, and AI-enabled retail applications, identifying weaknesses that could expose customer data or disrupt retail operations.
Work Within the Security Stack You Already Use

Extend coverage across your SIEM, EDR, cloud, and security platforms without requiring a migration. Named practitioners work transparently within the tools and processes your team already uses.

Test the Attack Paths That Matter Most
Test ecommerce platforms, payment APIs, cloud infrastructure, VPNs, firewalls, and exposed services against adversary-informed paths that could provide access to critical retail systems.

How a Global E-Commerce Leader Secured Its Payment Applications

Closing a Compliance-Critical Testing Gap in Weeks, at Scale

Global E-commerce Enterprise

When a global e-commerce leader lost its testing vendor, 14 payment applications needed testing to meet India's CERT-IN compliance mandate. UltraViolet Cyber assembled a certified testing team in weeks, documenting 112 findings and earning an A rating.

 

The Challenge

  • The prior vendor's exit left UPI payment applications without CERT-IN-empaneled testing, required under India's government mandate. 
  • UltraViolet Cyber did not hold the CERT-IN certification, and no existing team could meet the empanelment requirement.
  • Mid-engagement, the client expanded scope to include mobile application testing, a first for this account.
  • Fourteen applications needed testing on tight timelines, with coordination across multiple TPMs and service team stakeholders.
  • Quality and on-time delivery earned UltraViolet a place among the few shortlisted vendors the following year, despite the client's testing budget cuts.

The Solution

  • Built a CERT-IN-qualified vendor team in India within weeks, interviewing, onboarding, and equipping contractors.
  • Re-evaluated candidates and quickly found qualified mobile testers when the client added mobile applications to scope.
  • Trained the new team on the client's custom testing methods and followed mandated processes throughout.
  • Dedicated technical oversight and project management clarified expectations, flagged risks early, and supported every stakeholder.

 

Built on Regulations, Frameworks, and Standards That Make Security Measurable

 

Engagements map findings and defensive coverage to established regulations, frameworks, and standards, giving your team a consistent way to measure exposure, validate progress, evaluate AI risk, and communicate resilience to boards, regulators, and auditors.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you assess the security of customer-facing AI?
We examine what your AI systems can access, what they can share, and what actions they can take. Testing covers risks such as prompt injection, exposure of sensitive data, and misuse of connected tools, using MITRE ATLAS and OWASP guidance for LLM applications. Our AI Security Program Assessment can also help you evaluate security practices across the organization, compare maturity with peers, and identify priorities for improving your AI security program.
