Challenge

Before implementing ThreatConnect and Polarity, the Wyndham security team faced a variety of challenges that limited their response times and efficiency. For example, analysts had to deal with too much context switching and manual data collection to gain context when investigating and triaging alerts. Searching for indicators of compromise (IOCs) was manual and time consuming, and memorializing new intel was labor-intensive. Finally, analysts were challenged to work consistently and efficiently.

Solution

Wyndham implemented ThreatConnect’s TI Ops Platform and Polarity across their security teams to centralize threat intelligence in a single solution, and make it more accessible and actionable. The combination of ThreatConnect and Polarity allows security operators to leverage threat intelligence in-line with context from a wide-range of security tools and internal and external knowledge sources where analysts do their threat prevention, detection, and response work.

Outcome

Wyndham’s security teams reduce the complexity of alert triage and response using intelligence in-line with context from a wide range of security tools and knowledge sources at the point of analysis, decision, and action, all while freeing up hours of analyst time each day.
