Case Study: IRIS Software Group achieves 24/7 visibility and rapid threat containment with eSentire

IRIS Software Group - Customer Case Study

IRIS Software Group, a high-growth UK software company serving accountants, corporates and education with more than 1,500 employees and multiple recent acquisitions, faced limited network visibility as it consolidated disparate on‑premises systems to a cloud-first model. With a small security team and a need for 24/7 detection across hybrid environments, IRIS engaged eSentire for comprehensive Managed Detection and Response — deploying eSentire MDR for Endpoint, MDR for Network, MDR for Log and a co‑managed eSentire Managed Risk – Managed Vulnerability Service.

eSentire provided continuous threat hunting, centralized log aggregation and managed vulnerability scanning, quickly revealing and helping remediate previously unknown risks (for example an unpatched VoIP handset) and enabling IRIS to block phishing URLs and malicious source IPs identified during scans. The service delivered immediate, measurable gains in visibility and response — allowing containment and remediation in minutes, avoiding the cost of building a 24/7 SOC, and giving IRIS the security platform to continue rapid cloud transformation and acquisition-driven growth.
