Industry Challenge for Dairygold
The threat is ever changing, and the solutions to counteract the threat are not always keeping pace with the improvement in the skills and abilities of the people who can potentially attack your environment. There is no silver bullet that will provide an all-encompassing answer. Like most companies, Dairygold had a lot of different platforms providing different technology services to their suppliers, customers and employees. Dairygold needed to get more definitive visibility of what was happening on those platforms without spending a lot of time chasing false positives.
Managing a variety of platforms delivering distinct technology services
Limited Visibility at a Detailed Level within Network Architecture
Excessive Time Invested in Addressing False Positives
Smarttech247 Solution for Dairygold
Dairygold focused on IBM QRadar SIEM along with IBM BigFix for patch and inventory management. QRadar SIEM is able to collect logs, events and flows from all network devices and assets, helping to analyse the risks and vulnerabilities in their network. To address the cybersecurity risks that come with Operational Technology, Dairygold implemented IBM BigFix.
