Case Study: Travis Perkins PLC achieves stronger hybrid cloud security with Splunk

Travis Perkins plc cuts security incident investigation from 3 weeks to 3 hours with Splunk

Travis Perkins plc, a major British builders' merchant and home improvement retailer, faced a significant security challenge during its transition to a hybrid cloud environment. Its existing security information and event management (SIEM) solution could not provide the necessary visibility across its complex mix of on-premises and cloud services, leaving it vulnerable to a high volume of advanced cyberattacks. The company selected Splunk, implementing Splunk Cloud, Splunk Enterprise, and Splunk Enterprise Security (ES) to gain the required security insights.

By deploying Splunk's solutions, Travis Perkins plc dramatically improved its security posture. The implementation enabled a lean security operations center (SOC) where all IT staff could act as first responders, and it automated threat defense with risk-based correlation. This resulted in a massive reduction in security incident investigation time, from three weeks down to just three hours. Splunk provided the necessary visibility and flexibility to effectively monitor the hybrid environment and respond to the evolving threat landscape.
