Case Study: Wavefront achieves faster breach detection and simplified cloud security with Lacework

How Wavefront gained faster, more accurate insight into their cyber kill chain

The customer VMware Tanzu, known as Wavefront at the time, faced significant security challenges due to its dynamic cloud infrastructure and short-lived applications. They struggled to detect and investigate breaches with their existing rules-based tools and were burdened by incomplete, sampled logs that required time-consuming manual correlation. The team at Lacework provided a solution by implementing its automated cloud security platform to create deep temporal baselines for spotting anomalies.

The Lacework solution eliminated the need for labor-intensive maintenance and preset policies. This enabled VMware Tanzu to instantly visualize attacks, understand the entire cyber kill chain, and remediate vulnerabilities with greater speed and precision. The results included simplified security operations, significant time savings, and a faster mean-time-to-detection for spotting and addressing breaches.
