Case Study: Cedar achieves better security visibility and scalable detections with Panther Labs

Cedar secures 10 million patient records with Panther

Cedar, a healthcare technology company, faced significant security challenges due to rapid growth and disparate data sources. Their traditional SIEM and open-source tools could not handle the volume of logs from diverse cloud services, leading to poor performance, incomplete visibility, and an increased risk of data breaches. The scattered storage and inconsistent data formats also made compliance difficult and increased the costs of monitoring and audits.

By implementing Panther Labs' platform, Cedar centralized its data ingestion using serverless functions and adopted a detections-as-code approach. This allowed them to create universal detections, integrate security into their CI/CD pipeline, and build a scalable, automated alerting system. As a result, Panther Labs helped Cedar streamline and prioritize alerts to reduce false positives, future-proof their security program, and gain a unified, predictable view of their security posture.
