Case Study: InfoTeK achieves rapid threat detection and 75% SIEM cost reduction with Splunk

InfoTeK and Splunk Deliver Security Intelligence Platform for Public Sector Customer

InfoTeK partnered with a U.S. government agency that was struggling with a legacy HP ArcSight SIEM that couldn’t keep up with growing data volumes or deliver timely, actionable intelligence. Monitoring and incident response were slow and resource-intensive, requiring multiple tools, extra hardware and specialized engineering effort to identify anomalies and threats.

InfoTeK deployed Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Enterprise Security over one weekend, giving the agency an analytics-driven SIEM that stopped an attack the next day, scaled to massive data volumes, and consolidated many tools into a single console. The move cut SIEM support costs by about 75%, reduced staffing from two full-time engineers to one half-time engineer, and delivered faster detection, response and broader operational visibility.
