Case Study: Vulcan Steel achieves faster threat detection and response with Darktrace AI

Vulcan Steel Limited autonomously investigates 99% of threats with Darktrace

Vulcan Steel Limited, a steel and aluminum distributor across Australia and New Zealand, faced the challenge of securing its complex and distributed IT and operational technology environment across 82 sites. Limited visibility made threat detection and response difficult, creating business risk for its production-dependent facilities. To strengthen its cyber resilience, Vulcan Steel chose Darktrace for its Self-Learning AI and Cyber AI Analyst product.

The implementation of Darktrace provided Vulcan Steel with enhanced visibility and autonomous threat investigation and response. The solution analyzed over 2.2 billion events, autonomously investigating 99% of threats and escalating only 27 for human review. This significantly reduced analyst workload and allowed Darktrace to autonomously respond to potential threats in an average of just 30.5 seconds, containing risks before they could escalate.
