Case Study: UK eDemocracy Co. Achieves Dependable Application Security and Standards Compliance

Elegant MicroWeb worked with a leading internet community, consultation and eDemocracy solution provider in the U.K. to help them achieve their application security and compliance objectives. The business wished to ensure compliance with government standards and best practices in application security to protect their data and business from hacking and security threats. Even the slightest security breach would damage the reputation of the business and have financial and legal implications, so it was critical that their solutions and systems were designed to meet or exceed industry and government standards.

A stringent security audit was performed by a 3rd party security expert. The Elegant MicroWeb team provided a stable, high performance application architecture based on Microsoft platforms to ensure web application security and accessibility standards compliance. Services included research, identification and interpretation of the best security practices, mapping of standards to technology platforms, identification, resolution, testing and implementation of all standards and coordination of third party security verification.
