Case studies
Security work, in practice
How organizations strengthened their defences with FioSec: what prompted the work, what we did across the seven layers, and where it left them.

Vulnerability Management
From 100,000 findings to a managed vulnerability program
A new CISO’s first vulnerability scan surfaced more than 100,000 findings. FioSec helped turn the flood into a ranked, risk-based remediation program with routine patching automated, and still works alongside the team every month.

From firewall rule sprawl to a rulebase the team can trust
More than half of a manufacturer’s firewall rules had not been used in over two years, and nobody could say what they did. FioSec reviewed every rule, cut the rulebase down to what the environment actually needs, and now helps keep it that way through the client’s monthly change-management meeting.

Wi-Fi that follows the sale onto the lot
Sales staff at an automotive dealership lost connectivity the moment they stepped outside with a customer. FioSec designed and deployed weatherproof outdoor wireless with seamless roaming, so vehicle listings and pricing stay live in staff hands from the showroom to the back row of the lot.

Case files that follow the lawyer, not the office
At a multi-office law firm, which case files you could reach depended on which office you were in. FioSec implemented SASE so lawyers get the same secure access to their files at every location, with the firm’s security policy following them wherever they work.

A healthcare organization finds out what is actually on its network
A healthcare organization could not say with confidence what was connected to its network, and every security decision suffered for it. FioSec deployed asset discovery with a real-time, continuously updated inventory, so protecting the environment now starts from facts instead of guesses.

The tabletop exercise that rewrote the incident response plan
An organization’s incident response plan looked complete until the first tabletop exercise asked who could actually make decisions. The walkthrough exposed the gaps, and the plan was rewritten around named people and real authority.

When everyone is an admin, so is the attacker
Local administrator rights everywhere and shared admin credentials meant one compromised account could take the whole environment with it. FioSec rolled out least privilege and privileged access management without grinding day-to-day IT to a halt.

Retiring the VPN that let everyone go everywhere
An aging VPN gave staff and contractors the run of the network when most needed a single application. FioSec replaced it with Zero Trust Network Access, so people connect to what they are entitled to, and nothing else is even visible.

From clicking phish to reporting them
A baseline phishing simulation caught an uncomfortable share of staff, and almost nobody reported it. A sustained program of training and simulations turned clickers into reporters, so suspicious emails now reach IT before they reach trouble.

A new IT director inherits an unknown, and gets a plan
A newly hired IT director inherited an environment with thin documentation and a leadership team asking hard questions. A maturity gap analysis became a phased security roadmap, executed quarter by quarter.

Two weeks’ notice, and the knowledge heading for the door
When the security engineer resigned, years of undocumented context were about to leave with them. FioSec captured what could be captured, kept the lights on through the gap, and handed the successor a documented environment.

Running the platform while teaching the team to run it
A serious security platform was deployed with nobody on staff who knew it deeply. A FioSec specialist ran it properly, taught the team on their own environment, and deliberately worked out of the daily role.

A security team for the one-person IT department
One person kept the whole organization running, and security was one more hat on the pile. FioSec became their fractional security arm on recurring hours: specialist depth at a fraction of a headcount.
