Case Study: Large Healthcare Company Achieves Faster Incident Response and Advanced Analytics with Optiv

Large Healthcare Organization Leverages Optiv to Increase Visibility, Accelerate Response and Enable Advanced Analysis

Large Healthcare Company, a healthcare IT services provider, needed a faster way to analyze security log data across 140 million customers, 250,000 endpoints, and 8 TB of raw logs per day. Its existing SIEM struggled with siloed data, poor data quality, limited retention, and slow investigations that could take hours, increasing compliance and breach-notification risk. Optiv helped address these challenges with an in-depth Secure Data Lake Assessment and enterprise data lake strategy.

Optiv designed and deployed an enterprise-scale data lake with low-latency search, integrating more than 110 data sources and supporting peaks of up to one million events per second. By adding enrichment and correlation before ingestion and enabling automated incident response, Optiv reduced incident response time from 2–4 hours to just 12 minutes. The solution also expanded use cases beyond SOC to fraud, compliance, IT, and advanced analytics, generating estimated monthly savings of $100K–$400K through fraud detection and enabling new machine learning capabilities.
