Case Study: Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency achieves rapid triage and mitigation of Microsoft Exchange Server vulnerabilities with Nuix

Actions Required to Respond to Microsoft Exchange Server Vulnerabilities

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency needed to rapidly respond to Emergency Directive 21-02 to mitigate critical Microsoft Exchange Server vulnerabilities. Nuix supported this effort by deploying components of the Nuix software platform—including Nuix Workstation, Nuix Adaptive Security and Nuix Enterprise Collection Center—to enable direct Exchange Server triage and automated indicator-of-compromise detection.

Nuix implemented automated YARA, IOC and RegRipper scripts, real-time alerting, and integrated collection/remediation workflows so agencies could get answers within minutes, isolate compromised Exchange servers to prevent lateral movement, search for and remove identified web shells, and satisfy the directive’s requirements. Nuix delivered enterprise-scale, defensible forensics that reduced incident response time and enabled rapid containment and cleanup across endpoints.
