WHY ULTRAVIOLET FOR SOFTWARE AND TECHNOLOGY
Turn Offensive Findings into Defensive Action
Offense informs defense. Defense sharpens offense. Close the gap between tested and detected, and prove your defenses hold.
24/7 monitoring and response, plus threat hunting, for platforms customers rely on.
Customer Outcomes
Scaling Security Testing Without Starting Over
~240 consultant-weeks a year, every annual assessment on time for 12+ years
Technology and Cybersecurity Fortune 100 Enterprise
A Fortune 100 technology company partners with UltraViolet Cyber to extend its in-house offensive security team, delivering roughly 240 consultant-weeks of testing annually across web, mobile, client, and embedded systems. All code and data stay within the company’s environment.
The Challenge
- Every in-scope product needs an annual assessment to meet policy, regulatory, and customer requirements.
- Testing demand ranges from 40–80 consultant-weeks per quarter, depending on release schedules.
- Sensitive code and data must stay within customer-controlled infrastructure.
- Web, mobile, client, embedded systems, and source code reviews each require a tailored testing approach.
- Enterprise customers require CREST-accredited testing, with some requesting UltraViolet by name.
The Solution
- A dedicated delivery team works alongside the company’s internal offensive security team.
- Each assessment is scoped around what has changed since the last review.
- Testers work within the customer’s environment using approved tools, including AI tools.
- Staffing scales with quarterly forecasts and adjusts around release dates and testing freezes.
- Weekly planning calls and direct access to the delivery lead keep testing focused on current priorities.
Built on Regulations, Frameworks, and Standards That Make Security Measurable
We map engagement findings and defensive coverage to relevant regulations, frameworks, and standards. This gives your team a consistent way to measure exposure, validate progress, evaluate AI risk, and communicate resilience to boards, regulators, and customers.
USE CASES WE SOLVE
Aligned to Your Priorities
Software teams run more applications than per-engagement testing budgets cover, and headcount is harder to win than contracted capacity. Start with your highest-priority risks, then align testing, detection, and response to your release schedule, with findings developers and SOC can act on.
Test what changed before it ships. Solstice accelerates testing while experts investigate authorization, injection, and business logic flaws that automated scans may miss.
Copilots and agents interact with customer data and tools. Threat modeling and adversarial testing assess that they respect user permissions and stay in scope before you expand access.
Onboarding and annual retesting cover web, mobile, and API, with critical and high findings retested before listing. U.S.-based testers available.
Add named detection engineers or 24/7 monitoring and response across cloud, identity, and production systems customers depend on.
Selling to federal agencies starts with authorization. Readiness assessments find gaps before your 3PAO does, and FedRAMP-compliant monitoring supports you once you're in.
Acquired code arrives with unknown risk. Threat modeling and penetration testing assess inherited platforms before you connect them or put your name on them.
Vulnerability Research
The Logic Flaws That Hide Behind Valid Signatures
An UltraViolet researcher found two logic flaws in a zero-trust access product. One verified a signature without checking permissions; the other treated mismatches as matches. Chained together, they allowed any valid identity to plant an SSH key. Your applications depend on these same authorization and validation checks. The vendor shipped a fix four days after our report.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Assessments can cover models, agents, RAG pipelines, and AI-powered product features, with testing tailored to how each feature accesses data and takes action. Testing covers prompt injection, data leakage, and whether agents stay within user permissions and authorized actions, with findings mapped to OWASP and MITRE ATLAS. Pre-production threat modeling informs design decisions, while adversarial testing evaluates how protections hold up in practice.
For program-level questions like governance, policy, and where to test first, our AI Security Program Assessment evaluates organizational practices.
We plan testing around how your team develops and releases software. Assessments can target changes to authentication, APIs, data access, and other priority features, follow a recurring schedule, or bring dedicated practitioners into your development process. Capacity flexes with your forecasts and shifts around release dates and testing freezes, including urgent tests ahead of an accelerated launch. At one Fortune 100 technology company, testing ranges from 40 to 80 consultant-weeks a quarter as release schedules and seasonal demand change.
In recurring engagements, practitioners build knowledge of your architecture over time, and scope each assessment around what changed since the last one. Findings are timed to inform release decisions, with follow-up testing scoped to validate fixes.
Reports document scope, testing methods, findings, and remediation guidance. Attestation letters summarize testing for customer reviews without exposing full findings, and retests confirm fixes.
Findings can be mapped to SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, HITRUST, and other requirements, while ongoing defensive engagements provide evidence of detection coverage and response performance.
Testing is CREST-accredited, which enterprise customers often ask of their software vendors, and we agree on deliverables and dates up front so evidence is ready before reviews and audits.
Testing starts with an agreed scope and rules of engagement that reflect your service availability and tenant isolation requirements. Together, we define target systems, testing windows, operational limits, stop conditions, and points of contact.
We select production or staging environments based on the assessment goals and agree on how to handle sensitive data and potential service impact. Using test tenants you provision, we probe cross-tenant access and privilege escalation without touching customer data. When code and data must stay in your systems, testing runs entirely inside your environment.
Yes. Before testing or monitoring begins, we agree with your team on who owns triage, escalation, containment, and test coordination, whether you need additional testing capacity, dedicated detection engineering, or 24/7 monitoring and response. Named practitioners work within your existing tools and processes. At one Fortune 100 technology company, UltraViolet completes the required annual assessments so the internal team can focus on adversary emulation and red teaming, and our findings hold up to that team's technical review.
Offense informs defense. Defense sharpens offense. Red findings become blue detections, whether your SOC or ours acts on them, and blue telemetry sharpens red tradecraft. Purple team exercises validate the improvements with your team.
