Unisys – Legacy Product Modernization

Overview

Unisys partnered with Affirma to modernize its TrustCheck product—a cybersecurity risk assessment tool previously managed through Excel. Affirma redesigned, developed, and transformed the tool into a modern web application using React and Azure. The result was a scalable, intuitive, and visually engaging product that helped CISOs and CSOs assess cyber risk, communicate ROI, and make data-driven security investment decisions. The modernized TrustCheck launched successfully and went on to win “Hottest New Cybersecurity Product” at the 2020 RSA Conference.

Business Need

Unisys needed to redesign and modernize its legacy TrustCheck product, which had been operating through Excel. TrustCheck notifies companies about potential cyber threats, estimates the likelihood of cyber-related financial losses, and provides actionable insights to leadership teams. The company wanted to create a scalable, web-based platform that would enhance user experience, support iterative product releases, and provide a compelling interface for CISOs and CSOs to evaluate cybersecurity ROI and run “what-if” risk scenarios.

What We Did

Affirma partnered with Unisys to bring TrustCheck to life as a modern digital product by:

  • Applying UX design heuristics and best practices to redefine the product’s user experience and interface.

  • Rebuilding and modernizing the solution using React and Microsoft Azure for performance, scalability, and accessibility.

  • Leading product strategy, iterative releases, and testing cycles to ensure a polished, reliable final product.

Results

  • Successfully launched the modernized TrustCheck platform on schedule for Unisys’ client licensing in Spring 2020.

  • Winner of “Hottest New Cybersecurity Product” at the RSA Conference 2020.

  • Empowered CISOs and CSOs with clearer insights, improved decision-making tools, and measurable ROI in cyber risk management.
