Summary

Bank BRI, a major financial institution in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, is utilizing Elastic Security to mitigate cybercrime and manage financial risks as part of its mission to empower microbusinesses and advance financial inclusiveness. The bank faces challenges in obtaining visibility into its extensive network due to its size and the rapid adoption of digital banking, which has expanded its attack surface. Elastic Security provides real-time visibility, integration, and automation, enabling Bank BRI's Security Operations Center (SOC) to enhance its monitoring and incident response capabilities. The platform's centralized nature allows for efficient data ingestion, storage, and processing, which is crucial for security operations and fraud investigations. Elastic's machine learning capabilities and user-friendly visualizations help the SOC team improve their security processes and communicate the importance of security investments to executives. As Bank BRI transitions more workloads to the cloud while maintaining a significant on-premises presence, Elastic Security supports their hybrid infrastructure, ensuring a robust security posture.
