Case Study: Data Intelligence Company strengthens security and frees up time with Expel MDR

Data intelligence company strengthens security with Expel, freeing up time and saving millions

Data Intelligence Company, a global data intelligence platform for privacy, security, compliance, and governance, needed a way to monitor thousands of daily threat alerts across its cloud environment, especially AWS, without overwhelming its small security team. After seeing the value of Expel’s managed detection and response (MDR) at a previous employer, the CISO chose Expel to provide 24×7 threat detection, alert monitoring, and remediation support from day one.

With Expel MDR, Data Intelligence Company shifted time-consuming alert triage and noise reduction to automation and Expel analysts, gaining full visibility across its cloud infrastructure, SaaS apps, and endpoints. The result was a more efficient security program, more time for the team to focus on product security and infrastructure projects, and significant budget savings versus building a SOC in-house; the company also credited Expel’s tuning guidance and cloud-native expertise with strengthening its security posture.
