Case Study: Global Bank achieves rapid AI-powered detection and blocking of advanced threats with Lastline Defender

Global Bank Hardens Defense with AI to Counter Network-Based Adversaries

A Fortune Global 1000 financial services firm with roughly 50,000 employees across North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America faced an onslaught of sophisticated, network-based attacks that bypassed perimeter defenses. Legacy tools generated overwhelming alerts and missed stealthy threats, leaving the security team unable to quickly detect lateral movement or malicious content entering the network.

The bank deployed Lastline Defender’s AI-powered detection and response in phases—first monitoring then blocking email and web-borne threats, then expanding to network traffic analysis to spot lateral movement. The solution stopped malicious traffic before it entered the network, revealed complete attack chains for faster investigation, significantly reduced false positives, and provided global sensor coverage that’s ready to protect on-premises and cloud workloads.
