PALO ALTO, CA, UNITED STATES, February 6, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — A top U.S. university (name withheld due to confidentiality agreements) reported a 98% risk reduction in application security after integrating CloudDefense.AI into its application security workflow, according to an anonymized customer story published by CloudDefense.AI.
The published account describes an application environment with multiple development teams operating across academic and administrative departments, frequent releases supported by CI/CD pipelines, and a mix of public-facing applications and internal systems used for teaching, research, and administration. As development velocity increased, the university’s security team faced growing volumes of findings with limited context, persistent false positives, and prioritization challenges that made it difficult to focus remediation on issues most likely to represent real exposure.
According to the customer story, the university adjusted its approach by prioritizing issues based on reachability and practical exploitability rather than tracking vulnerability volume alone. The university integrated CloudDefense.AI into existing CI/CD workflows so analysis could run alongside normal development activity, with the goal of reducing time spent reviewing non-actionable items and aligning remediation work to findings that were more likely to matter in production.
“We needed a way to reduce real exposure without adding process overhead for teams shipping code on tight timelines,” said a security leader at the university, who requested anonymity due to confidentiality agreements. “Clearer context on what was actually exploitable made prioritization and remediation more consistent across teams.”
The customer story reports that following adoption, the university measured a 98% reduction in application security risk, alongside reduced false positives and alert fatigue, faster remediation across development teams, improved confidence during internal assessments and audits, and a workflow that scaled without increasing security headcount.
