Vertical: Manufacturing

Problem:
A leading Oregon-based manufacturing corporation needed to strengthen its cybersecurity posture to meet client-mandated compliance requirements. Initially seeking a penetration test to validate vendor security standards, the organization quickly realized that multiple overlapping security providers were creating unnecessary complexity and management challenges. They wanted a unified, trusted cybersecurity partner capable of consolidating services, reducing vendor fatigue, and improving visibility across their environment.

Strategy:
This opportunity required a long-term, relationship-driven approach. Through steady communication and organization, we stayed top of mind until their readiness aligned with project planning. Once engaged, we shifted the conversation from a single compliance exercise to a comprehensive security strategy, emphasizing the value of consolidating under one platform for improved efficiency, compliance, and peace of mind.

Solution:
We implemented a CIRRUS Engagement that included:

• Penetration Testing (PT)

• Remediation Pen Testing (RPT)

• Vulnerability Management (VM)

• Patch Management (PM)

• Identity & Access Management / Data Defense (IAM/DD)

• Dark Web Monitoring (DW)

By bundling these services into one fully managed solution, the client gained complete visibility, continuous monitoring, and proactive protection against evolving threats—all delivered under a single, trusted partner.

Results:
The client successfully met all customer-mandated compliance requirements while simplifying their cybersecurity operations. By consolidating multiple services under CIRRUS, they reduced vendor complexity, strengthened internal oversight, and established a scalable cybersecurity framework to support future growth in Oregon and beyond. The partnership transformed what began as a basic compliance initiative into a long-term, value-driven security strategy.
