Case Study: Pakistan Stock Exchange achieves 80% visibility into its complex IT environment with IBM Security

Pakistan Stock Exchange In-depth visibility across a complex IT environment

Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), a national electronic securities trading venue with 550 listed companies and more than 350 brokerage houses connected to its network, faced growing security and monitoring challenges as online trading and new IT services expanded. To gain comprehensive, real-time visibility and faster threat response, PSX engaged IBM Security and adopted IBM QRadar SIEM along with other IBM Security tools.

IBM Security delivered an integrated SIEM and threat-intelligence solution (including IBM QRadar Network Security (XGS), IBM QRadar SIEM, IBM Security AppScan, and IBM X-Force Threat Intelligence) to provide a single-console view of threats and response tools. The deployment raised infrastructure visibility from 20% to 80%, boosted productivity so fewer people accomplish more, and significantly improved audit compliance—demonstrating clear, measurable security and operational benefits from IBM Security’s solution.
