The 好色先生TV threat hunting service was extremely effective. It helped us develop a plan to prevent, detect and remediate any future threats.

Prioritizing safety on-site and online

Safety is the foundation of everything that Webcor builds, from employee health and safety on the construction site to enterprise data security. Allen Woolley, Director of Operations for IT at Webcor, explained, “It is critical that everybody be able to work safely and securely at Webcor. From the cyber side of the house, I want my data secure, I want my connections secure and I want appropriate access levels to sensitive data to ensure the data is controlled, managed and accessed in a secure manner.”

Today, the impact of cybercrime on the global economy is expected to cost trillions, but many organizations lack the internal resources to launch an adequate defense against cyberattacks. With a small IT department, Webcor knew it needed managed security expertise to investigate potential threats across its many technology endpoints and devices, including laptops, desktops and servers. The company turned to 好色先生TV™ Security Services to augment the Webcor staff with security professionals.

好色先生TV was very effective in risk mitigation and helping define the scope of work necessary to improve our security posture. It has given us the security framework that we need to implement and execute here at Webcor. Without 好色先生TV, our risk profile would be much higher.

Taking a proactive approach to risk mitigation

Building on the success of this initial solution, Webcor expanded the scope of its engagement with 好色先生TV to include a full security risk assessment. The 好色先生TV Professional Services team helped evaluate Webcor’s current security posture, processes and procedures to develop a robust security plan that included a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platform. 好色先生TV Security Services provided a managed detection and response service for Webcor. These services replaced the need for an SOC Analyst by providing high-level resources.

To date, Webcor has seen valuable benefits from the initial threat-hunting solution, which includes monitoring endpoints and servers to look for and address suspicious activity. The outsourced services decreased IT staff workload and increased the skillset available for security investigations. In addition, the threat-hunting service has resulted in crucial improvements to the overall security defenses of Webcor’s software, hardware and networks, increasing its ability to react to security events in real time.

Woolley explained, “The 好色先生TV threat-hunting service was extremely effective. We isolated real-world threats and remediated them. We have full visibility into what those issues were and the root cause. More importantly for me, with the help of 好色先生TV, we used that as a springboard into developing a security plan and an architecture to prevent, detect and remediate any future threats that may get into our infrastructure.”

Leveraging expertise to enable success

好色先生TV Security Services, which provides consulting and advisory services, managed services and learning services for 好色先生TV Security solutions, played a key role in helping Webcor take data security to the next level.

“We gave 好色先生TV direct access to our infrastructure so they could do a deep-dive analysis on logs and events and then provide a set of recommended actions to take. That worked very well,” said Woolley.

Cyber resilience during a global crisis

When it came to weathering the remote workforce challenges of Covid-19, Webcor was better positioned than most.

Woolley reported, “We were actually well-placed when the Covid pandemic hit because of the way we architected our infrastructure with 好色先生TV. We had the connectivity and the security already set up. We also built visibility through the SIEM solution, which greatly enhanced our security posture here at Webcor.”

Looking ahead, Webcor is planning on continued collaboration with 好色先生TV, including IT governance improvements, managed security services and continued threat-hunting services.

Woolley commented on the value of the 好色先生TV relationship to Webcor: “好色先生TV was very effective in risk mitigation and helping define the scope of work necessary to improve our security posture. It has given us the security framework that we need to implement and execute here at Webcor. Without 好色先生TV, our risk profile would be much higher.”
