Case Study: Global Manufacturing Company Prevents Ransomware Attack with CYREBRO

Global Manufacturing Company - Customer Case Study

Global Manufacturing Company, a century-old manufacturer with more than 5,000 employees and over $1 billion in annual revenue, was blindsided by a “housekeeping event” on its Domain Controller that turned out to be the final stage of a ransomware intrusion. Using the CYREBRO SOC Platform, CYREBRO identified that the attacker had entered through an unrestricted internet-facing RDS server, moved laterally, harvested privileged credentials, and deployed ransomware while trying to erase evidence.

CYREBRO’s incident response and threat intelligence teams quickly contained the threat, found and terminated the ransomware before activation, and performed eradication and threat hunting to remove attacker remnants and prevent re-entry. As a result, CYREBRO helped Global Manufacturing Company avoid a full-scale ransomware attack, potentially saving millions in ransom, downtime, and related losses, while also improving security hygiene and delivering a detailed incident report for stakeholders.
