About The Customer
The customer is one of the largest global data center and colocation providers. The company's IT team manages upwards of 15,000 servers and 13,500 endpoints spanning traditional data centers, Azure, and AWS environments. As the company continues to grow and migrate applications to Azure and AWS, it was facing challenges with compliance, visibility, and OS hardening across its diverse hybrid environment. The company needed a solution that could provide a single, unified view across its complex hybrid infrastructure, automate manual and tedious compliance assessment processes, and offer a wizard-based approach to OS hardening.
The Challenge
The company, a large global data center and colocation provider, was facing challenges with compliance, visibility, and OS hardening across its diverse hybrid environment. The IT team manages upwards of 15,000 servers and 13,500 endpoints spanning traditional data centers, Azure, and AWS environments. The company was concerned about the lack of visibility into cloud endpoints and feared an inaccurate view presented by disjointed security tools across its hybrid infrastructure attack surface. The company also needed to map and automate ISO and NIST CSF frameworks to each asset, supporting its FEDRAMP-approved system.
The Solution
The company chose Cavirin as its solution. Cavirin provided a single, unified view across the company's hybrid infrastructure, including a CyberPosture Score. This allowed the company to drill down into the risk coming from asset groups, individual resources, and policy control families and operating systems. Cavirin also enabled the company to map and automate ISO and NIST CSF frameworks to each asset, supporting the company's FEDRAMP-approved system. The company utilized customizable policy frameworks, with remediation guidance, to meet other mission-critical organization requirements. Cavirin's wizard-based approach to OS hardening automated discovery, assessment, and remediation guidance, shortening the time and effort required to secure a complex environment.
