Fortune 200 Financial Institution Prevents $5.5 Million Malware Threat

Sonatype Repository Firewall, built on AWS, blocks malware from the start, protecting the SDLC.

No industry is under more relentless security threats than financial services. A world’s top financial institution spent $2M+ on an internal, “homegrown” custom solution designed to work within its organizational silos; they believed their investment had paid off. They thought they had all their potential risks covered with Crowdstrike and Zscaler, but despite the significant time and money invested, they were blind to known malicious threats. Sonatype was enlisted to help augment these efforts and verify their systems were protected.

Financial institutions can’t afford blind spots. When it comes to malware prevention, proactive, component-level protection is mission-critical. Sonatype Repository Firewall provided the only real-time defense capable of continuously identifying and blocking malicious open source components before they entered development pipelines.

Homegrown solutions can’t match the breadth and depth of Sonatype’s malware prevention and detection. With more than 300 million open source components cataloged, Sonatype’s platform offers the industry’s only comprehensive, proactive solution for end-to-end software supply chain security.
