STT GDC India wanted to develop an effective cybersecurity strategy with highly mature threat detection and response capabilities. The company & EY partnered together to conduct a gap assessment of cybersecurity framework, which revealed multiple areas of improvement in cybersecurity policy. These improvement areas were identified as per benchmarks and standards identified by leading industry practices and security standards and guidelines such as ISO27001 and NIST. As part of the exercise, the assessment identified the need for improving the following: security monitoring and operations, business continuity planning and disaster recovery, privacy, and data protection.

While the company recognized a clear need for building a security operations centre, it found several drawbacks in existing market solutions which rendered them ineligible. The solution had to be tailored specifically for the company’s business and designed to mitigate against threats from advanced and interactive attackers.

EY-CCC Next Gen SOC solution provided STT GDC India with the right amount of support for managing security operations in a programmatic way. EY offers 24x7 security monitoring through its CCC Next Gen SOC solution which provides Cognitive Threat Detection and Response, integrated with SOAR and Threat Intelligence.

STT GDC India was able to drive immediate improvements to its cyber defence posture, using EY-CCC Next Gen SOC capability. The following figure depicts how the company improved cybersecurity across different metrics.

The solution offers a hybrid approach to security: onsite resource work within the client’s data center during business hours. The onsite resource is complemented by a team of remote analysts that are available 24x7 and 365 days a year. This service is provided from EY-CCC SOC facility at Chennai.
