Case Study: Quanta Services achieves dramatic alert reduction and strategic focus with Red Canary

Red Canary plays important role in Fortune 250 company’s merger and acquisition strategy

Quanta Services, a Fortune 250 provider of infrastructure solutions with operations across the U.S., Canada, Australia and beyond, faced a recurring challenge as it grew through more than 200 acquisitions: integrating new companies while keeping a lean IT security team of ~15 people agile and effective. Alert fatigue from tools like CrowdStrike EDR made it difficult to prioritize real threats, so Quanta sought a partner for comprehensive threat detection and response — Red Canary.

Quanta partnered with Red Canary to offload alert triage and continuous threat hunting, which cut noisy alerts from thousands per year to just 35 true alerts needing attention, safeguarded endpoints across 60,000+ employees, and freed Quanta’s team to focus on strategic initiatives, tool health, and secure product rollouts. Red Canary’s service improved operational efficiency, reduced incident response burden, and enabled Quanta to mature its enterprise security posture.
