Case Study: Finanz Informatik Technologie Service achieves unified SIEM and faster incident detection with Splunk Enterprise

Finanz Informatik Optimizes Risk Management With a Single SIEM Solution

Finanz Informatik, the IT services provider for the Sparkassen Finanz Gruppe (serving 416 savings banks, regional banks, DekaBank and subsidiaries, supporting ~125 million accounts and billions of transactions), needed better cross-platform visibility and analytics across thousands of mainframe, Unix, Windows, network and middleware systems. The company had been operating multiple SIEM tools and required a single, scalable, high-availability solution with multi-client capability that could integrate seamlessly with existing infrastructure and detect security events in real time.

Finanz Informatik deployed Splunk Enterprise to index and analyze machine data from several thousand machines, set real-time alerts, and correlate events across platforms. The unified SIEM delivered faster identification and investigation of incidents, reduced complexity, error rates and costs, and improved protection of customer data while providing comprehensive operational visibility.
