Case Study

Leading aerospace manufacturer

unifies risk visibility and reduces costs for its AWS and multi-cloud environment with Vullify

A major aerospace manufacturer headquartered in Montreal—operating across multiple continents—faced new complexity after acquiring several specialized aviation suppliers and integrating their IT infrastructure. This consolidation introduced critical visibility gaps across their expanding hybrid environment and raised the risk of cyber exposure in an industry where intellectual property protection and supply chain security are paramount. At the same time, leadership tasked the security team with contributing to a seven-figure cost reduction goal by simplifying its technology footprint, including reducing vendor sprawl. As its use of AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) grew to support design collaboration, manufacturing systems, and global supply chain operations, the security team struggled with manual, time-consuming reporting, siloed views of risk, and an overwhelming number of false positives from existing scanning tools. To close these gaps and streamline operations, the team turned to Vullify for a unified, accurate vulnerability management solution.

Challenges

Limited visibility and inconsistent risk prioritization across a complex hybrid environment spanning design centers, manufacturing facilities, and global offices.

Excessive false positives from legacy scanning tools, wasting remediation cycles on non-exploitable findings and delaying production timelines.

Lack of standardized reporting to provide consistent, organization-wide insights—from engineering teams to executive leadership and board-level compliance reporting.

Manual, inefficient processes for monitoring and managing multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP) supporting CAD/CAM systems, supply chain platforms, and collaborative engineering tools.

Pressure to meet stringent aerospace industry compliance requirements (ITAR, CMMC, AS9100) while reducing costs and vendor sprawl.

Why Vullify

Comprehensive hybrid attack surface coverage in a single, unified view—enabling the organization to eliminate redundant tools, simplify operations, and reduce costs.

False positive elimination through advanced validation, ensuring teams focus only on real, exploitable vulnerabilities that could impact critical aerospace IP and production systems.
