Case Study: Iraq Stock Exchange achieves 80% faster incident detection and secures online trading with IBM Security

Iraq Stock Exchange Protecting its online trading platform with advanced security controls and analytics

Iraq Stock Exchange needed to protect its growing online trading platform and gain comprehensive database monitoring and greater visibility across its infrastructure to rapidly detect threats. The Iraq Stock Exchange engaged IBM Security (with solution delivery by IBM Premier Business Partner Computer Business Machines) and implemented IBM QRadar SIEM together with IBM Security Guardium Data Activity Monitor to secure database activity and online trades.

IBM Security replaced manual monitoring with an integrated solution that gives near‑real‑time visibility into database activity and infrastructure and uses analytics to baseline normal behavior, detect anomalies and uncover threats. The deployment cut time to identify and prioritize potential incidents by 80%, strengthened security and compliance, and helped boost investor confidence to support expansion of the online trading platform.
