Case Study: Elexon achieves proactive threat detection and brand protection with Recorded Future Intelligence Cloud

Elexon Gets Ahead of Threats with Recorded Future

Elexon, the UK national financial reconciliation provider that administers the Balancing and Settlement Code, needed to better understand and prioritize risks from domains, leaked credentials, third‑party suppliers, compliance mandates, and global threats to the energy sector. To solve this, Elexon implemented the Recorded Future Intelligence Cloud—using Brand, Threat, SecOps, and Vulnerability Intelligence—to replace manual monitoring with an intelligence‑led, proactive approach.

Recorded Future provided real‑time alerts, quarterly Insikt Group reports, and targeted monitoring that surfaced previously undetected threats (typosquatted domains, leaked supplier credentials, zero‑day activity) and informed cloud migration and BYOD decisions. The result was actionable intelligence for SOC analysts and stakeholders, maintained ISO 27002 compliance, stronger brand protection across the energy ecosystem, and a reported 100% detection rate on internal typosquat pen tests while enabling more effective prioritization of limited security resources.
