Case Study: a multinational financial services firm achieves continuous security control assurance with Prelude

Multinational financial services firm maximizes control efficacy with Prelude

The customer, a multinational financial services firm, faced challenges with configuration drift and maintaining optimal security control efficacy in its high-frequency trading environment. They turned to the vendor, Prelude, and utilized its continuous monitoring and autonomous control assessment capabilities to gain consistent assurance.

Prelude's solution immediately identified a critical misconfiguration in CrowdStrike, where a suboptimal policy left endpoints vulnerable. This enabled the security team to remediate the issue within minutes. Furthermore, Prelude provided deeper visibility that uncovered an unmanaged device from an off-boarded employee, preventing a potential insider threat. As a result, the firm gained comprehensive visibility into its security posture and ensured its security tooling investments were effective and operating in an optimal state.
