Leading Co-operative bank Opt ECS for CSOC Security Operation Center
Overview

In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, businesses and organizations rely heavily on their IT infrastructure to stay competitive and secure. Efficient monitoring and security practices are critical to ensuring the smooth operation of the systems and the protection of sensitive data. Our client is a regional financial institution serving a diverse range of clients. Given the sensitivity and value of financial data, here after referred to as Bank leveraged advanced (CSOC) Cyber Security Operation Center, to monitoring and security practices to maintain server storage, network, and Windows system security.

Challenges
  • Server Storage Monitoring: They had multiple servers handling critical financial transactions, and monitoring their storage was a daily task. The challenge was to ensure that servers always had sufficient storage capacity and to proactively address any potential issues.
  • Network Monitoring: In the financial sector, network security is paramount. They needed to monitor network traffic, particularly the usage of Any Desk, and quickly identify potential security threats, such as malware attacks and unauthorized access.
  • Windows System Security: Windows systems were a key component of their infrastructure. They needed to ensure that the Windows systems were secure and generate logs for auditing and analysis.
Solution Delivered
  • Automated Monitoring: We implemented an automated server storage monitoring system that checked the storage levels daily. Custom scripts were developed to generate alerts if storage reached predefined thresholds.
  • Real-time Alerts: The monitoring system was configured to send immediate email alerts to the IT team and relevant stakeholders if any server’s storage exceeded predefined limits.
  • Scheduled Reports: Weekly server health reports were generated and shared with the management team. These reports included storage utilization, performance metrics, and any recent issues.
  • Comprehensive Network Monitoring: We deployed a network monitoring system to track the top destinations and AnyDesk usage within the organization. Suspicious activities and deviations from normal usage were flagged.
  • Attack Detection: The system was configured to detect potential attacks, such as malware, and report any unauthorized file extractions.
  • Source IP Tracking: In the event of a security incident, they could quickly trace the source IP of the attack and initiate countermeasures.
  • Log Generation: To ensure Windows system security, they maintained detailed logs of system events. Custom scripts were developed to generate logs and store them in both CSV and Excel files.
  • Log Analysis: The IT team regularly analyzed these logs to identify any unusual activities or potential security breaches.
Results

The implementation of these monitoring and security solutions brought significant improvements to SOC services:

  • Server storage issues were proactively addressed, minimizing downtime and improving operational efficiency.
  • Network monitoring helped in early detection and prevention of security threats, ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of financial data.
  • The detailed Windows system logs provided valuable insights for troubleshooting and identifying potential security vulnerabilities.
Conclusion

By implementing SOC Service, the bank fortified its cyber security defenses and established a comprehensive security framework, allowing them to safeguard their network, maintain regulatory compliance, and address emerging cyber threats effectively. This case study demonstrates that a comprehensive approach to CSOC services, to monitoring and security is essential for organizations, especially in sectors where data security is paramount.
