Case Study: State Grid Shanghai Municipal Electrical Power Company strengthens security and compliance with CyberRes Sentinel Enterprise

State Grid Shanghai Municipal Electrical Power Company - Customer Case Study

State Grid Shanghai Municipal Electrical Power Company, a subsidiary of State Grid Corporation of China, needed a better way to secure its environment for 34,000 users. The company’s existing identity and security setup made it difficult to centrally review logs, detect breaches quickly, audit inactive “zombie” accounts, and stay compliant, creating risk of penalties and security-related losses. CyberRes provided NetIQ Sentinel Enterprise, integrated with the company’s existing NetIQ Identity Manager and NetIQ Access Manager environment.

With CyberRes and NetIQ Sentinel Enterprise, State Grid Shanghai Municipal Electrical Power Company gained centralized security reporting, automated compliance auditing, and better visibility into user activity without changing its system architecture. The implementation helped cut IT security staff from five to two, improved incident response time by 80%, reduced security incidents by 50%, and lowered security-related revenue losses by 90%.
