Case Study: a large European energy provider reduces digital risk in procurement with Darkbeam

A Large European Energy Provider Worked with Darkbeam to Improve Their Procurement Team's Risk Mitigation Strategy

A large European energy provider worked with Darkbeam to improve its procurement team's risk mitigation strategy. The client needed to purchase advanced electronic monitoring equipment but was concerned about the security vulnerabilities and sensitive data associated with such products, which are major targets for cybercriminals.

Darkbeam analysed the bill of materials and transactional data for the equipment components, classifying the data and assigning a digital risk score to each. This enabled the procurement team to easily benchmark and compare suppliers. As a result, Darkbeam’s solution accelerated decision-making, led to a reduction in digital risk for purchased products, and provided a scalable, repeatable process for the client to analyse other product categories.
