Real-world security outcomes
Real-world examples of how Pyneora helps Australian businesses reduce risk and strengthen security posture.
Rescuing a Failed Symantec EDR Migration to Azure VMware Solution for a Global Mining Organisation
An ASX-listed global mining organisation needed to migrate its 50,000-endpoint Symantec EDR platform to Azure VMware Solution within a three-month data centre exit deadline. After the initial migration attempt had not succeeded, Pyneora's principal architect was engaged directly by the vendor as a Symantec EDR specialist - identified certificate corruption as the root cause, redesigned the architecture, and delivered on time.

A financial services organisation was running a third-party security suite across roughly a dozen AWS accounts alongside AWS-native security capability it had never switched on, while forwarding every security event to Microsoft Sentinel regardless of value. Pyneora decommissioned the redundant tooling, enabled and centralised AWS-native security controls, and filtered Sentinel ingestion to high-value events only - eliminating a six-figure annual licensing cost while maintaining full security coverage.

A large organisation in the energy and resources sector was experiencing rapid SharePoint growth with thousands of sites already in place and dozens of new sites being created each month. Pyneora performed a comprehensive discovery and user access review across the SharePoint estate, providing centralised visibility into site ownership, storage, internal and external access, and lifecycle status. The work helped the organisation move from a reactive SharePoint environment to a controlled, auditable model with better visibility over cost, access, ownership, and information risk.

A large state government agency had accumulated more than 100,000 vulnerabilities following a major migration from on-premises infrastructure to AWS. Before establishing Pyneora, our principal architect was engaged to establish a structured remediation program - aligning asset inventory, restoring patching effectiveness, coordinating emergency change windows, and developing a longer-term vulnerability reduction strategy.
