How Schmitz Cargobull Strengthens Infrastructure Security and Reduces Testing Costs

Michael Schaller, responsible for IT infrastructure and security at Schmitz Cargobull, explains how Pentera supports ongoing security validation across the organization.

Security is a top priority across the company, with a strong mandate to protect customer data. Pentera enables the team to understand what happens when attackers gain access and how to mitigate potential damage.

Using Pentera Core, the team runs regular internal penetration tests to evaluate how attacks progress once defenses are bypassed. With Pentera Surface, they continuously monitor for external risks such as misconfigurations and exploitable vulnerabilities.

Compared to previous monthly manual pentests, Pentera delivered a fast return on investment by reducing costs and increasing testing frequency. Combined with strong support and ongoing collaboration, the platform has become a key part of the organization’s security operations.
