Success Stories

Real-world examples of long-term partnerships and measurable security outcomes from our managed services and strategic consulting.

Purple Team Assessment: Testing SOC Capabilities & Response Maturity

Engagement Duration: 7 weeks • Service: Penetration Testing & Remediation Support

Challenge: The client wanted to validate the effectiveness of their SOC and test detection and response maturity against real-world attack scenarios. Internal security leadership also sought guidance on improving remediation processes.

Our Penetration Testing Solution:

  • Conducted a 3-week red team style penetration test simulating advanced threat actors.
  • Assessed SOC visibility, detection speed, and incident response playbooks in real time.
  • Delivered detailed findings with prioritized risk scoring and actionable remediation steps.
  • Engagement extended by 4 weeks to support hands-on remediation and validation testing.
  • Provided security maturity roadmap to strengthen detection and response capabilities.

"The assessment gave us a clear, real-world measure of our SOC’s capabilities. The follow-up remediation support accelerated our improvements dramatically." – Head of Security Operations

SIEM Cost Optimization with syslog-ng

Scope: Logging & Detection Engineering • Duration: 9 months

Challenge: Rapidly increasing SIEM costs driven by excessive log ingestion volumes and noisy telemetry were straining both budget and detection quality.

Our Approach:

  • Designed a tiered logging pipeline with syslog-ng for aggregation, routing, and transformation before SIEM ingestion.
  • Implemented filtering, deduplication, and field-pruning to eliminate repetitive or low-value events while preserving high-signal telemetry.
  • Redirected verbose and audit logs to low-cost object storage with integrity checks and retention policies for compliance.
  • Developed dashboards and alerts to continuously validate log coverage, health, and latency.

Results:

~60% reduction in daily SIEM ingestion
Substantial monthly cost savings
Improved signal-to-noise ratio for detection and hunting
Sustainable logging strategy aligned with compliance
