Business challenges:
ISO 27001:2013 compliance requirements: EDW Technology faced the challenge of aligning its IT operations with ISO 27001:2013 standards, necessitating the generation of audit-ready reports and effective security control implementation.
Lack of centralized security operations: The organization lacked a single platform to detect ransomware attacks and track user activity, leaving gaps in system visibility and security event analysis.
The problem
Being an organization that extensively operates in the energy sector, Ensuring compliance with ISO 27001:2013 and maintaining a robust IT security posture were top priorities for EDW Technology. However, disparate monitoring tools and limited automation made it difficult to detect unauthorized changes, monitor critical actions, and track essential system events. EDW Technology's IT team needed a solution that could deliver centralized visibility and help the organization meet stringent regulatory standards. Without real-time alerting and ransomware detection, the organization remained vulnerable to evolving threats.
The Solution
EDW Technology deployed EventLog Analyzer, ManageEngine's log management solution, to meet its compliance and security needs. Being a monitoring solution that centralizes log collection from over 700 log sources, EventLog Analyzer provided EDW Technology much-need consolidation of security processes required to monitor and audit its IT infrastructure.
By configuring real-time alerts with EventLog Analyzer, EDW's IT team now receives immediate notifications for anomalous user activity that indicate critical cyberthreats such as unauthorized privilege escalations and suspicious login activity. This proactive approach enables them to respond swiftly to potential threats. The solution’s ability to track machine shutdowns and restarts has improved EDW Technology's user monitoring significantly.
EventLog Analyzer’s audit-ready reports proved invaluable for ISO 27001:2013 compliance. The solution, whose capabilities such as file integrity monitoring, event correlation, unified threat analytics, and investigation, helped EDW's IT and security teams identify policy violations and anomalies that could affect data confidentiality, integrity, or availability—critical pillars of the standard. Additionally, its ransomware detection features ensure early warning signals for faster mitigation, reducing lateral movement.
