Case Study: U.K. Billion-Dollar Oil Enterprise achieves 8x faster threat detection and 24x7 AI-driven protection with Trustwave

U.K. Billion-Dollar Oil Enterprise Establishes a Safer Network with a Next Generation Security System Powered by Trustwave

U.K. Billion-Dollar Oil Enterprise, a large oil and gas exploration and production company managing 40+ fields, faced escalating cyber risks and a need to replace an under-performing managed security service. The company required machine learning/AI-driven EDR, 24x7x365 monitoring, faster investigations, fewer false positives and predictable costs, and engaged Trustwave as its MSS/MDR partner alongside Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR to meet those requirements.

Trustwave deployed a comprehensive solution—Cortex XDR agents, SIEM, network access control, DFIR and continuous threat hunting delivered as managed services (with simulated attacks, tuning, and a pay-per-use model), and leveraged Cortex XDR’s content update algorithm to solve offshore bandwidth limits. As a result Trustwave helped the customer cut alerts by up to 98%, achieve reportedly 8x faster detection and response, increase threat containment without performance degradation, reduce total cost of ownership and false positives, and provide 24x7x365 protection.
