Revolutionizing Website Security for AlertMedia with Darwin’s Advanced Solutions

About the client

AlertMedia, a leader in emergency communication software, sought to enhance its website's security and streamline vulnerability management.

Darwin partnered with AlertMedia to implement an automated system that conducted vulnerability checks every 12 hours, provided detailed monthly reports, and offered real-time alerts to key personnel.

This proactive approach dramatically reduced vulnerability resolution time to just 4-6 hours and solidified the company's commitment to robust security practices.

Introduction

Mission
Based in Austin, Texas, A is the leading provider of emergency communication solutions, helping organizations protect their people and businesses during critical events. With a focus on keeping employees safe, informed, and connected, AlertMedia offers intuitive, reliable communication tools trusted by thousands of organizations worldwide.
Problem Overview
As a technology-driven organization, AlertMedia recognized that securing its digital infrastructure was a top priority. The company’s growing global presence and robust online platform meant heightened security demands, especially for managing vulnerabilities in the plugins and themes powering the website. Manual vulnerability checks were not only time-intensive but also left room for delays in addressing potential threats. AlertMedia needed a more efficient solution to keep their virtual operations as secure and fast-paced as their communication tools.

The Problem

Key issues

Inefficient Manual Monitoring

Prior to implementing Darwin’s solution, AlertMedia relied on manual monitoring to identify plugin and theme vulnerabilities. This approach was labor-intensive and created compliance risks, as critical vulnerabilities could remain unaddressed for prolonged periods.

Delayed Vulnerability Response

Without an automated system, response times to vulnerabilities were slower than desired, posing significant risks to website performance and user trust.

Lack of Centralized Reporting

The absence of centralized and detailed reporting made it difficult for AlertMedia to track vulnerabilities over time, evaluate the success of previous fixes, and identify patterns that could improve their security strategy.

The Solution

Darwin stepped in with a comprehensive plan to address AlertMedia's cybersecurity challenges through advanced automation and expert management. The solution leveraged cutting-edge plugin and theme vulnerability management tools tailored to address AlertMedia’s pain points.
1

Automated 12-Hour Vulnerability Scans

Darwin introduced an automated system capable of scanning every plugin and theme used on AlertMedia's website every 12 hours. This ensured real-time monitoring of potential vulnerabilities, reducing reliance on manual labor and eliminating delays.
2

Proactive Maintenance for Swift Fixes

An automated vulnerability management protocol was implemented to ensure that identified risks could be resolved within 4-6 hours of detection. This proactive maintenance helped prevent potential threats before they could escalate.
3

Monthly Detailed Reporting

Darwin provided AlertMedia with monthly reports detailing all vulnerabilities detected and resolved during the period. The detailed reports not only showcased the solution’s efficacy but also helped AlertMedia track progress and make data-driven security decisions.
4

Real-Time Alerts for Key Personnel

To enhance the urgency and efficiency of vulnerability management, Darwin implemented a notification system that alerted 5-10 key personnel whenever critical vulnerabilities were discovered. This allowed the AlertMedia team to stay informed and act decisively when needed.

The results of Darwin’s solution were immediate and transformational, laying the groundwork for a long-term partnership with AlertMedia.
