“As cybersecurity professionals and hackers, we have always been highly competitive in not only honing our own skills but in creating something that ensures a safer digital space for everyone,” said Mathieu Huysman, Head of Business Operations at MoGi Cyber.
“We work hard to anticipate our partner’s security needs, develop detailed and creative plans to expand our testing solutions capacity, and cater our systems to each new game we work with. This latest venture with our friends at Microsoft has proven to be crucial to that ongoing growth and expansion we’ve seen in the last year and we’re extremely looking forward to the exciting new opportunities it presents. We’ve got a lot more planned for cybersecurity in 2019 so watch this space!”
These new advances brought on by MoGi Cyber’s associations with Microsoft have allowed the award-winning service provider to bolster and expand its penetration testing prowess exponentially. With the use of Microsoft’s industry standard Xbox Development Kits (the quantity of which can be scaled to fit any testing project), along with all the exclusive resources therein, the service provider’s testing teams can take full control over a game’s client applications and perform the most extensive and exhaustive tests possible. The coveted kits also allow for greater accuracy and scope in tracking the exact source of vulnerabilities and modify as needed.
