Our client is a leading real estate group in Asia, renowned for its diverse portfolio that includes residential, commercial, and industrial properties. With operations across multiple sectors, the group handles substantial volumes of sensitive data, making it a prime target for cyber threats. As the group continues to grow and expand its digital presence, ensuring robust cybersecurity measures is essential to safeguarding its assets, transactions, and maintaining trust with stakeholders in an increasingly interconnected environment

The real estate group faced several critical cybersecurity challenges, including:

• Business Email Compromise (BEC): The organization experienced multiple attempts at business email compromise, where attackers tried to manipulate email communications to initiate unauthorized transactions. They needed a solution to prevent these attacks and educate their employees on how to recognize and handle such threats.
• Data Breach Risk: With a vast amount of sensitive data, including personal and financial information, the group was at high risk of data breaches that could lead to significant financial and reputational damage. They required a comprehensive approach to identify vulnerabilities and protect their data.
• Red Team Services Requirement: The company needed a proactive approach to identify and address vulnerabilities by simulating real-world attack scenarios through red team exercises to test their defenses.
• Dark Web Monitoring: The organization was concerned about potential leaks of sensitive data or credentials on the dark web. They needed continuous monitoring to detect and respond to such threats promptly.
• External Attack Surface Management (EASM): Managing and monitoring the external attack surface was essential to identify and mitigate potential entry points for attackers. The organization needed a solution to continuously oversee and secure these external vulnerabilities.
• Cybersecurity Maturity Model: The group sought to establish a cybersecurity maturity model to assess their current security posture and create a roadmap for continuous improvement to enhance their cybersecurity defenses over time.
