Tools Rationalization and Cybersecurity Optimization for a Leading RPA Provider

A leading robotic process automation (RPA) provider delivering cloud-enabled solutions needed to optimize their $10 million cybersecurity investment portfolio. Facing redundant tools, inefficient operations, and an underperforming Managed Detection and Response (MDR) provider, they engaged Redapt to conduct a comprehensive tools rationalization. Through strategic analysis and vendor renegotiation, Redapt helped the company achieve $2 million in annual savings while strengthening its security posture and operational efficiency in a highly competitive SaaS marketplace.

Turning Challenges Into Opportunities

Empowering Innovation Through Smarter Cybersecurity

The company delivers cutting-edge robotic process automation (RPA) solutions, relying on a secure and efficient tech stack to stay competitive. Redapt’s intervention, including the transition to BlueVoyant, streamlined its cybersecurity operations, reducing costs and enhancing its ability to innovate.

Continuous innovation and robust security are critical in the SaaS industry. Companies must balance investment in development with the need to protect their platforms, making efficient cybersecurity management a strategic priority.

The Problem

After a year in position, the CISO identified significant inefficiencies in their $10 million cybersecurity budget. The company struggled with redundant tools, poor visibility into ROI, an underperforming MDR provider, and potential security gaps emerging as their technology evolved—all threatening to undermine their competitive position and operational efficiency.

The Solution

Redapt conducted a comprehensive tools rationalization across four departments, reviewing over 80 items spanning application security, cloud security, and MDR solutions. The engagement identified redundancies, negotiated better vendor pricing, and replaced their MDR provider with a superior solution at a significantly lower cost, all while maintaining security integrity.

The Outcome

The RPA provider achieved $2 million in annual savings—a 20% reduction in cybersecurity spending—while improving its security posture with a superior MDR solution at a 36% lower cost. The tools rationalization streamlined operations, eliminated redundancies, and positioned the company for continued innovation with a more efficient, adequate security infrastructure.
