Customer Challenge: EPB’s reliance on multiple disconnected security tools created critical blind spots, making it difficult to correlate and respond to emerging threats. This fragmented approach led to delayed response times and a reactive security posture.

Solution: Customer use cases were presented followed by a demo and POC.

By implementing Splunk Enterprise Security, EPB centralized visibility across their hybrid environment, enabling real-time correlation, high-fidelity risk-based alerting, and accelerated incident investigations. 

Customer Outcomes: The product is still being implemented, we hope to transform their SOC into a data-driven, agile defense center, reducing ticket times and enhancing their ability to detect and respond to threats at scale.
