Drax Group Benefits from Microsoft 365 ES & Azure Managed Services

“The reason Microsoft provides such a powerful security solution is that it seeks to meet your needs holistically. Each security layer talks to everything else, including those data sources you might be using that are external to Microsoft.” — Martin Sloan, Security Director, Drax Group

SITUATION

Drax Group, a UK electricity generator that’s part of the nation’s critical infrastructure, wanted to increase its visibility and threat protection capabilities across its IT landscape, unifying its data security approach through a single pane of glass.

SOLUTION

Standardizing on Microsoft integrated threat protection, the company is unifying its data intelligence with Azure Sentinel and the extended detection and response capabilities of Microsoft Defender products.

IMPACT

Drax saved 75 percent of its planned integration costs associated with solutions from multiple vendors. And the company created a security solution that protects its data regardless of the types of devices it secures or the location of its employees.
