Case Study: Community West Credit Union improves cybersecurity reporting efficiency with DefenseStorm

Community West Credit Union - Customer Case Study

Community West Credit Union, a credit union with $260M in assets, faced a significant cybersecurity challenge as it prepared for a regulatory examination. With a small team of only two personnel managing security and numerous disconnected systems, the process of aggregating data and meeting reporting requirements was highly inefficient. To solve this, they turned to the vendor DefenseStorm.

DefenseStorm implemented its THREAT SURVEILLANCE plus Cyber Threat Surveillance Operations (CTS Ops) GOVERNANCE PROGRAM. This solution provided the credit union with a "single pane of glass" for valuable data, granting greater network visibility and dramatically improving reporting efficiency. The measurable impact was substantial, reducing the time required to prepare compliance documentation from 40-60 hours to being automatically built into the system.
