Real Clients. Real Results
Every cyberattack starts the same way: someone finds a door left open, a weak password, an unpatched server, one wrong click. At Pluto Security, we get to that door before an attacker does. The case studies below aren't marketing copy, they're real engagements with real outcomes.
NEGUP Solution: From Zero Visibility to Full Threat Monitoring
NEGUP Solution came to us with a problem a lot of growing companies share: they had no real way to see what was happening on their own network. Phishing emails were getting through to staff on a regular basis. The firewall was outdated. Devices had no endpoint protection, cloud storage sat wide open, and there was no plan in place if ransomware ever hit. In short, they were exposed and didn't fully know how exposed.
What we found
- No centralized system to detect threats across the network
- Frequent phishing emails reaching employee inboxes
- An outdated firewall unable to secure internal systems
- No endpoint detection on company devices
- Cloud data stored without proper access controls
- Staff with little to no cybersecurity awareness training
- No ransomware defenses or real-time intrusion alerts
- Outdated antivirus software across the environment
- No disaster recovery plan in place
What we did
- Deployed a SIEM platform for centralized, real-time network visibility
- Added AI-driven email filtering to stop phishing before it reached inboxes
- Replaced the aging firewall with enterprise-grade protection
- Rolled out endpoint detection and response (EDR) across every device
- Locked down cloud platforms with strict access controls
- Built a custom ransomware defense and disaster recovery plan around their operations
- Trained staff to recognize threats themselves, because people stop the attacks technology misses
The results
- Completed in 14 days
- 92% fewer vulnerabilities
- Passed a full security audit
- Phishing incidents down 98%
- 0 successful ransomware attacks since deployment
- Breach response time under 3 minutes
NEGUP went from having almost no visibility into their own network to catching and stopping threats before they could spread. That's the difference between a security incident and a headline.
Utho: Securing Cloud Infrastructure Under Constant Attack
Cloud providers get hit differently than most businesses. It's not the occasional phishing attempt, it's automated attacks running around the clock. Utho was facing exactly that: near-daily brute force attempts against its servers, no DDoS protection, weak admin authentication, and blind spots in the backend that made it hard to know what was actually happening across their infrastructure.
What we found
- Brute force attacks hitting cloud servers almost daily
- No defenses against DDoS attacks
- Low visibility into backend infrastructure threats
- Weak authentication on admin panels
- Unencrypted data moving across the network
- No consistent patching schedule
- Logs scattered across systems instead of centralized
- Malicious plugins putting the environment at risk
- Third-party APIs used without proper vetting
- Backups that had never been tested for reliability
What we did
- Hardened every server against brute force and unauthorized access
- Added DDoS protection and IP filtering to stop network floods before downtime
- Rolled out multi-factor authentication for all admin-level access
- Applied SSL/TLS encryption so data in transit couldn't be intercepted
- Automated backend patching and centralized every log into one SIEM platform
- Swept the environment for malicious plugins and locked down API access with gateway rules
- Ran integrity checks on backups that had never actually been tested
The results
- Completed in 21 days
- 100% server uptime, even during active attacks
- Over 5,000 brute force attempts blocked per month
- Admin access fully secured with MFA
- Plugin-based attacks fully stopped
- API threats detected and blocked in real time
Utho now runs with full visibility into its infrastructure and hasn't lost a minute of uptime to an attack since the engagement wrapped.
ParaMed: Protecting Patient Data Without Slowing Down Care
Healthcare organizations carry a heavier burden than most. A breach doesn't just cost money, it puts patient trust and regulatory standing on the line. ParaMed needed a partner who understood that their systems couldn't go down for security work, because patient care doesn't pause.
What we found
- Patient records stored on outdated, vulnerable systems
- Data transferred without encryption
- Real exposure to compliance violations and fines
- Remote access with little to no security controls
- Outdated software increasing attack surface
- Third-party vendors with unchecked access to systems
- Overly broad role-based access across staff
- No centralized incident response process
- Frequent phishing attempts targeting medical staff
What we did
- Migrated patient data to a secure, monitored cloud platform with full encryption on every transfer
- Conducted a full compliance audit and closed every gap identified
- Set remote staff up with secure VPN access
- Put automated patch management in place so outdated software stopped being an open door
- Logged and tightly controlled third-party vendor access
- Tightened role-based permissions to a strict need-to-know basis
- Deployed automated incident response to handle threats in seconds, not hours
- Trained staff, because in healthcare the person answering the phone is often the last line of defense
The results
- Passed the compliance audit with zero violations
- Phishing attacks down 93%
- Remote access risk reduced to zero
- Threat detection in under 5 seconds
- 24/7 patient data monitoring
- No disruption to daily operations
ParaMed now runs with airtight compliance and a security posture that protects patients without ever getting in the way of the people caring for them.
