Case Study: Axis Security improves cloud visibility and drift detection with Firefly

Axis Security cuts cloud cleanup time with Firefly and catches misconfigurations before they cause downtime

Axis Security, a security software company, faced a significant challenge with visibility and control across its multi-cloud operations spanning AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and Oracle Cloud. Their DevOps team struggled with infrastructure drift, inconsistent resource tagging, and misconfigurations that created operational mayhem. To address this, they turned to Firefly for its cloud inventory and infrastructure as code (IaC) capabilities.

Firefly provided Axis Security with a solution that delivered fundamental visibility and context for their cloud inventory, replacing a previous CSPM tool. The results included the ability to quickly identify the root-cause of issues, such as a critical database misconfiguration that was caught to prevent potential downtime. The team also leveraged Firefly's insights to achieve cost savings, such as by upgrading outdated and expensive services. The vendor's platform proved invaluable for governance and was highly appreciated by the DevOps engineers for its useful alerts and optimizations.
