Case Study: Wall Street Tech Firm achieves zero-day threat detection with Bitglass Breach Discovery Engine

Wall Street Tech Firm - Customer Case Study

Wall Street Tech Firm, a mid-sized technology service provider for high-value Wall Street customers, engaged Bitglass and its Breach Discovery Service after the CTO uploaded a week of Next‑Gen‑Firewall logs. The firm faced a stealthy, high-risk incident: unknown malware activity that could be used as a back door to steal credentials and exfiltrate sensitive client data.

Bitglass ran its Breach Discovery Engine on the logs and identified high‑risk cloud apps, a compliance exposure, and—critically—ten internal IPs contacting Malware Command and Control destinations, with some hosts showing multiple infections. By uncovering this zero‑day activity early, Bitglass enabled the firm to prioritize remediation and limit potential damage and data loss.
