Case Study: Lancaster University achieves central cybersecurity visibility and 80–90% faster threat response with LogPoint

How Logpoint is helping Lancaster University to achieve central cybersecurity visibility

Lancaster University, a top-10 UK institution with over 12,000 students and 2,500 staff, needed central cybersecurity visibility to manage millions of siloed logs from networks, servers, applications and endpoints across multiple campuses. To unify log retention, enable correlation and enrichment, and improve investigations, the university selected LogPoint as its SIEM and centralized log management solution.

LogPoint implemented a node‑based SIEM (Enterprise License) with API integrations to normalize and identity-enrich logs from network infrastructure, endpoints and cloud apps like Office365, plus custom alerts and dashboards. The solution delivered measurable impact—helping identify privilege misuse and trends, enabling 80–90% quicker response to cyberthreats and saving 80–90% of investigation time—while the predictable LogPoint licensing removed cost-driven data exclusions.
