// CASE STUDIES

Outcomes you can measure.

Every engagement is documented in the same format we'd hand to an inspector general: clear problem, defensible solution, quantified impact.

// CASE 01

DoD · Detection Engineering

Behavior analytics rollout for a defense agency

78%

drop in mean time to detect

62%

reduction in false positive volume

140+

detections re-engineered & validated

// Problem

A DoD client's SOC was drowning in volume from disparate EDR, identity, and proxy feeds. Mean time to detect on credential abuse exceeded 24 hours.

// Solution

Re-architected the Splunk detection pipeline. Migrated 140+ legacy correlation searches into ATT&CK-mapped, validated detection content. Stood up UEBA modeling for cleared user populations.

// CASE 02

FinServ · SOAR Automation

Automated triage for a Tier-1 financial SOC

4.2×

increase in analyst throughput

68%

reduction in MTTR on Tier-1

production playbooks shipped

// Problem

A Tier-1 bank's SOC was spending 70% of analyst time on Tier-1 enrichment and ticket hygiene. Burnout was driving attrition.

// Solution

Built 22 production SOAR playbooks (Splunk SOAR + Python) covering phishing, malware, identity, and cloud-misconfig workflows. Wired automated enrichment and case-management writeback.

// CASE 03

Federal Civilian · Compliance

RMF re-authorization for a civilian agency

100%

control inheritance achieved

73%

POA&M items closed pre-assessment

1st-pass

ATO granted on schedule

// Problem

A federal civilian agency faced an aggressive ATO timeline with significant POA&M debt and unclear control inheritance from cloud providers.

// Solution

Mapped 600+ NIST 800-53 controls to inherited cloud baselines, FedRAMP boundary, and customer responsibility matrix. Engineered evidence pipelines that auto-collect for assessor review.

// CASE 04

Cleared Contractor · Insider Threat

Insider threat program for a cleared environment

NITTF

minimum standards met

high-fidelity insider detections

audit findings

// Problem

A cleared defense contractor had no formal insider threat detection capability and was approaching a NITTF audit.

// Solution

Designed a NITTF-aligned program from policy through tooling. Implemented UEBA on identity, file, and email telemetry. Trained two-tier triage analysts and stood up case workflow.

// READY WHEN YOU ARE
