"As CTO of a Swiss SaaS company in the private-equity space, I’ve seen how innovation boosts performance but also increases security risk. That’s why our partnership with Air is so valuable. Their expert team consistently delivers clear, actionable insights through thorough penetration tests and red-team exercises. They’ve become a trusted partner who understands our business, our workflows and our risk profile. With Air’s deep expertise and responsiveness, we can innovate confidently, knowing our security is in expert hands."

The Challenge

As a fast-growing SaaS provider in the private equity space, qashqade needed to balance rapid innovation with strong cybersecurity. Operating in a highly regulated sector, the business couldn’t afford to let new features or infrastructure changes introduce vulnerabilities.

With an expanding Azure environment and a complex web application stack, the team required expert support to proactively identify risks and validate the security of their platform. They needed a trusted partner who understood both the pace of software development and the specific challenges of financial technology.

Key Requirements

Understanding of complex environment

Confidence from clients and stakeholders

The Outcome

Since partnering with Air IT Group, qashqade has significantly strengthened its cybersecurity posture across its Azure infrastructure and core SaaS platform. Regular, in-depth penetration testing has helped uncover and resolve vulnerabilities before they could be exploited, ensuring the platform remains secure as the business scales.

We worked closely with the qashqade team to assess and harden their web applications, delivering clear, actionable recommendations that were implemented quickly to reduce risk. Red-team exercises simulated realistic attack scenarios relevant to the private equity sector, helping the business test its resilience against more sophisticated threats.
