Case Study: Poka improves ECS visibility and reduces alert fatigue with Lacework

Lacework Offers Poka Visibility Into Containers With Deep Application Context

Poka, a connected worker application for manufacturers, needed better visibility as its AWS Elastic Container Service (ECS) environment grew. The team struggled with alert fatigue, limited application context from host-based tools, and the need to demonstrate security and compliance to customers. Lacework helped address these challenges with visibility into AWS ECS and enriched alerts.

With Lacework, Poka gained DNS-enriched alerting, faster alert resolution, and better application context for investigations. The platform was easy to implement in just one day, helped reduce alert fatigue, simplified compliance reporting, and allowed Poka to replace several security tools, lowering complexity and improving cost efficiency. Poka also used Lacework’s CloudTrail integration to track multiple AWS accounts and spent more time fixing real issues.
