Fortune 500 Natural Resources Company cuts cyber exposure by 51% with Grant Thornton LLP

A Fortune 500 natural resources company needed to strengthen its cyber resilience amidst increasing threats. The organization was struggling with limited visibility into risks, a slow, reactive response model, and significant alert fatigue from over 3,000 monthly security alerts. To address this, the company partnered with vendor Grant Thornton to modernize its managed cyber operations through a new AI-enabled security model.

Grant Thornton implemented a proactive solution built around three integrated service towers: a 24/7 security operations center (SOC), a vulnerability management program, and tailored threat intelligence capabilities. The firm also introduced an automation roadmap to speed up responses. As a result, the company saw a 40% increase in its BitSight score, a 51% reduction in its cyber exposure score, and a more than 50% decrease in alert volume, allowing analysts to focus on critical threats.
