Case Study: Netflix DVD achieves automated endpoint protection and advanced threat hunting with Carbon Black

Netflix DVD Finds Value in Threat Hunting with Carbon Black

Netflix DVD (the Media & Entertainment arm of Netflix, ~7,000 employees) faced ineffective traditional antivirus and the risks of zero‑day signatures. After evaluating several EDR solutions, they chose Carbon Black and deployed CB Defense, CB Response and CB ThreatHunter to replace signature‑based AV.

Carbon Black provided an integrated, behavior‑based platform with 24/7 endpoint telemetry, real‑time blocking, open APIs and automated responses, enabling advanced threat hunting, attacker profiling and automated policy changes. The deployment improved incident containment, reduced repetitive manual work and made the security team more efficient—eliminating reliance on signature updates thanks to Carbon Black’s prevention and detection capabilities.
