Case Study: Lumilens achieves 24/7 protection for photonics IP with Exaforce MDR

Lumilens cuts threat triage to 6 minutes with Exaforce

Lumilens, a designer and manufacturer of silicon photonics for AI data centers, faced significant security challenges protecting its high-value intellectual property. The company's small, globally distributed engineering team lacked 24/7 monitoring, struggled with coverage gaps from siloed cloud tools, and was overwhelmed by false positives that pulled engineers away from critical R&D work. Building an in-house SOC was not a feasible option, leading them to seek a solution from Exaforce.

Exaforce implemented its MDR service and data platform, which integrated telemetry from all of Lumilens's systems into a single real-time knowledge graph. This solution provided continuous, AI-powered monitoring that cut false positives by over 90% and delivered verified Threat Findings. The results were immediate and impactful: mean time to investigation for critical findings dropped to just 6 minutes, and the engineering team saved over 10 days of time every month, allowing them to focus fully on innovation while Exaforce secured their global scale.
