The Challenge<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

The majority of organizations in the biotechnology vertical, like ABC Bio, face several challenges for data protection:<\/span><\/p>\n

Diverse Lab Environments
<\/strong>Data scientists utilized numerous lab applications running on various operating system (OS) types and versions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Isolated Data Stores
<\/strong>Lab data was stored across disparate platforms, including AWS S3<\/a>, Box<\/a>, Dropbox<\/a>, and MS365<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Remote Workforce
<\/strong>Many employees worked remotely, making data security more complex.<\/span><\/p>\n

Limited IT Resources
<\/strong>ABC Bio\u2019s workforce included scientists and bioinformaticians, with few personnel dedicated to IT or IT security.<\/span><\/p>\n

Regulatory Compliance
<\/strong>Operating in a regulated market, ABC Bio had to adhere to numerous data security controls and compliance frameworks.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a fast-growing firm dealing with highly sensitive data, ABC Bio needed to protect its data\u2014whether in the lab, in their AWS cloud, or on user workstations\u2014and maintain visibility into potential threats at all times. They sought to improve their data security posture by implementing standardized security frameworks, corporate security policies, data security technologies, and a formalized incident response plan.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” next_background_color=”#ffffff” admin_label=”Section” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#3e489d” background_image=”https:\/\/ptp.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Square-Pattern-Hero-Background.png” custom_padding=”||52px||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”40px||40px||true|false” custom_padding_phone=”40px||40px||true|false” bottom_divider_style=”arrow” bottom_divider_height=”83px” da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” width=”85%” max_width=”1380px” custom_padding=”||99px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ module_class=”col-vert-cent” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”–et_global_heading_font|300|||||||” text_text_color=”gcid-secondary-color” text_font_size=”28px” text_line_height=”2.3rem” custom_margin=”||0px|||” text_font_size_tablet=”28px” text_font_size_phone=”24px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-secondary-color%22:%91%22text_text_color%22,%22text_text_color%22%93}”]The Solution<\/strong><\/p>\n

Recognizing that best-practice data security requires a layered approach, ABC Bio partnered with PTP to deliver security protection and detection services. PTP\u2019s PeakPlus SECURE suite of services<\/a> included:<\/span>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

CloudCheckr for Compliance Visibility<\/strong>
\nDeployed CloudCheckr<\/a> to provide consistent reporting on AWS services and configurations versus industry best practices.<\/span><\/p>\n

Enabled on-demand compliance reporting mapped to more than 20 key compliance frameworks.<\/span><\/p>\n

24x7x365 Monitoring with Fluency<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Implemented Fluency<\/a>, a next-generation SIEM, to correlate events from AWS CloudTrail, endpoint security tools, on-premises network tools, and Active Directory logs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Leveraged Fluency\u2019s machine learning and automated rules for anomaly detection, creating security incident tickets for triage and escalation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Comprehensive AWS Services<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Leveraged AWS services including CloudFormation<\/a>,\u00a0CloudWatch<\/a>,\u00a0CloudTrail<\/a>,\u00a0AWS Config<\/a>,\u00a0Identity & Access Management (IAM)<\/a>,\u00a0Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)<\/a>,\u00a0Simple Storage Service (S3)<\/a>,\u00a0Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)<\/a>,\u00a0VPN Gateway<\/a>,\u00a0AWS Key Management Service (KMS)<\/a>,\u00a0Amazon Inspector<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0AWS Certificate Manager<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Incident Response Plan Integration<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Built runbooks for notification and escalation of validated security incidents, aligning the solution with ABC Bio\u2019s incident response plan.<\/span>
