Case Study: St. George's University reduces false positives with Anvilogic

How St. George's University reduced false positives by replacing their more complicated legacy SIEM with the Anvilogic platform

St. George’s University, an international university and medical school with a small global security team, struggled to scale its security operations across campuses and teams while managing a noisy legacy SIEM. The team had difficulty applying version control to custom correlation rules, lacked actionable out-of-the-box detections, and spent too much time on reactive alert handling instead of proactive security work.

Using the Anvilogic Modern SOC platform, including the Detection Armory and integration with SGU’s existing SIEM and logging tools, St. George’s University quickly curated and deployed better detections with version control and machine-learning-based recommendations. With Anvilogic, SGU reduced false positives, achieved complete MITRE ATT&CK coverage for several techniques where there had been none before, and became 3x faster at rolling out new detection rules, freeing the team to focus on higher-value security and policy work.
