Case Study: European University strengthens cybersecurity and observability with Elastic

European University accelerates security insights with Elastic, analyzing 1 terabyte of logs a day

The customer, a leading global company in energy and construction, faced challenges securing and gaining visibility across its vast, decentralized data infrastructure for over 1,900 subsidiary entities. Their previous SIEM solution was inflexible and costly at scale. To improve cybersecurity and operational monitoring, they turned to Elastic, implementing Elastic Security and Elastic Observability.

Elastic provided a flexible, scalable platform that unified data correlation and analysis across the organization. The solution enabled rapid detection of security threats and operational issues, such as resolving a persistent three-year Wi-Fi problem in a week. Elastic's powerful analytics reduced investigation times from billions of logs to seconds, significantly improving the security posture and operational efficiency for the global company.
