Case Study: Oil and Gas Manufacturing Company achieves 100% ransomware protection and 13x more threat detection with Carbon Black Cb Protection

Oil & Gas Company Defends Against Ransomware

An enterprise oil and gas manufacturer (Oil & Gas Company) with roughly 30,000 workstations and 4,000 servers faced repeated targeted ransomware attacks, heavy time spent re-imaging 75–275 machines per month, and little endpoint visibility. They turned to Carbon Black and its Cb Protection product to gain a scalable, high‑assurance endpoint security solution.

Carbon Black deployed Cb Protection across the environment, which detected 13× more threats in testing versus traditional antivirus and protected all 240 machines hit in a ransomware incident with zero impact. As a result of Carbon Black’s solution the company met compliance (Critical Security Control 2.2), cut re‑imaging to nearly zero, reported zero breaches since implementation, freed internal resources, and realized significant cost savings.
