Customer Story

KONKAT SA Bolsters Network Security and Availability with RevealX

The IT Division of KONKAT SA is an ITOps, SecOps, and DevOps service provider that is part of a large conglomerate based in Greece with businesses across the maritime shipping, oil and gas, media, and sports industries.

The CHALLENGE

The security team at KONKAT IT is a small, dedicated team responsible for the security of a variety of internal customers. The company needed a network detection and response (NDR) solution that complemented its existing EDR and SIEM investments by providing real time traffic analysis.

“Network performance and security monitoring has become very important to us. It’s at least as important to us as traditional host security monitoring. We enjoy coming into work in the morning and seeing what RevealX blocked overnight while the team was sleeping.”

Zeppos Galanos IT Security Officer, KONKAT SA

The Technology Environment

  • Existing investments in SIEM and EDR solutions through a managed security services provider (MSSP)

  • A diverse collection of hosts, applications, and services distributed across multiple subsidiaries, including a fleet of maritime shipping vessels that move every day

WHY REVEALX

Why KONKAT SA Chose RevealX

  • Combines security and performance in a single platform. Network performance monitoring (NPM) enables KONKAT IT to troubleshoot network bottlenecks and gain a 360-degree perspective on the network.

  • Provides powerful network traffic analysis and lookback capabilities. Full packet capture and flexible record storage grant security teams the power to “go back in time” to hunt for threats and analyze past incidents.

  • Straightforward user interface. A “thoughtfully designed, clear-as-can-be” interface makes life easier for analysts at KONKAT IT, with fewer clicks from alert to detection.

  • Easy to deploy and integrate. RevealX integrated easily with pre-existing security solutions.

The Outcome

Faster Threat Detection Without Choosing Between Security and Network Availability

Unmatched network visibility and breadth of detection types enables network and security teams to make better decisions faster.

  • Endpoint telemetry and SIEM alerts didn’t provide the full picture of network activity. RevealX natively decrypts TLS 1.3 and SSL traffic; is fluent in over 90 network, database, and application protocols; and provides visibility across more network layers than competitors.

  • Now, teams can react “at the speed of light” to potential incidents with information on the type of malware used and how much organizational infrastructure is affected by a potential breach.
Network and behavioral baselines help identify abnormal behavior.

  • Automatic asset discovery and tagging establish baselines for entity behavior, while cloud-scale AI and machine learning rapidly uncover deviations from normal activity.

  • “It’s one thing to know host x is doing y,” says IT Security Officer Zeppos Galanos. “It’s another to know it hasn’t done that in three months.”

KONKAT doesn’t have to choose between security and network availability.

  • RevealX automatically orchestrates responses to malicious activity across integrated security tools, so the security team can respond to incidents without shutting down the network or disrupting business operations.

  • Tight integrations between solutions enable telemetry from EDR and SIEM solutions to be cross-referenced with network telemetry from RevealX to provide a holistic view of network activity.
