Case Study: Howard, LLP strengthens security posture with Arctic Wolf Managed Detection and Response

Howard, LLP strengthens security with Arctic Wolf’s 24x7 monitoring and cloud visibility

Howard, LLP, a Dallas-based CPA firm, faced significant cybersecurity challenges due to its business growth and increasing cyberthreats targeting the accounting industry. With a small IT team, the firm suffered from alert fatigue and lacked the resources for 24x7 network monitoring, leaving them vulnerable. They sought a solution to gain greater visibility and adopt a more proactive security approach, leading them to evaluate vendors including Arctic Wolf Networks.

Arctic Wolf implemented its Managed Detection and Response (MDR) solution, which provided 24x7 monitoring of Howard's network, endpoints, and cloud applications. This eliminated alert fatigue and gave the firm comprehensive visibility into its environment. The solution was put to the test by successfully identifying and enabling a quick response to potential threats, such as foreign login attempts and compromised client emails. Howard's CTO stated the partnership with Arctic Wolf provided immense value and was crucial for the firm's continued operation, as a significant security event could be financially devastating.
