Case Study: University of Zurich boosts threat hunting and cuts false positives with Stellar Cyber

The University of Zurich’s Central IT Department Unifies Security with Stellar Cyber

The University of Zurich, a large university with over 150 institutes and a limited IT security staff, faced challenges with threat detection taking weeks, a high volume of false positives, and managing numerous expensive security tool licenses. Needing a cost-effective platform to unify its security operations, the university selected Stellar Cyber's Open XDR platform.

The Stellar Cyber solution integrated over 20 native security applications, providing centralized visibility and reducing false positives by 50%. This enabled the security team to identify threats in minutes instead of days, dramatically increasing analyst productivity. Furthermore, the platform's built-in multitenancy and automation provided 24/7 coverage and delivered significant cost savings on license fees by consolidating standalone tools.
