Case Study: Global Semiconductor Manufacturer achieves rapid IP protection and zero-false-positive threat detection with Attivo Networks' ThreatDefend Platform

Manufacturer Protects Intellectual Property With ThreatDefend Platform

Global Semiconductor Manufacturer faced the risk of targeted stolen-credential attacks against employees and had extremely limited visibility into the subnets that held its chip-design intellectual property across multiple worldwide labs. Overwhelmed by high volumes of largely unsubstantiated alerts, the organization engaged Attivo Networks and deployed the ThreatDefend™ Platform to protect critical lab environments and intellectual property.

Attivo Networks implemented the ThreatDefend Deception and Response Platform (including BOTsink servers and ThreatStrike deceptive credentials), closing visibility gaps and producing high-fidelity, actionable alerts—within 30 minutes the team had full network visibility and zero false positives. The solution delivered detailed forensics and automated analysis (e.g., redirected blocked URLs), enabling the Global Semiconductor Manufacturer to drastically shorten detection and incident-response time, remediate an in-network threat before any data exfiltration, and eliminate wasted effort chasing false positives.
