Case Study: Microchip achieves faster incident response and enhanced cyber resilience with Red Canary

Fortune 1000 manufacturer partners with Red Canary post-incursion to secure environment

Microchip, a Fortune 1000 provider of embedded control solutions, faced potential data leaks following a string of acquisitions and subcontracted an IR firm to investigate. That firm brought in Red Canary—using VMware Carbon Black EDR during rapid deployment—to help identify and contain active threats without taking systems offline.

Red Canary implemented its MDR service to monitor threat actors in real time while Microchip executed a strategic containment program; the combined approach neutralized the intruders and avoided costly shutdowns. Since 2019 Red Canary has continued to monitor 30,000+ endpoints, enabling Microchip’s 200+ infrastructure and security staff to reduce high-severity threats, cut mean time to respond to minutes, and regain capacity for strategic security initiatives with around-the-clock support.
