The Challenge

DXC Technology, a global technology company, was facing a significant challenge with its client's dependence on a legacy tool for continuous PCI compliance. The situation was further complicated by the need for manual checks and a lack of oversight into unauthorized changes in the IT environment. The existing implementation with a competitor was not meeting the client's needs, and the lack of transparency into what they were monitoring made achieving effective PCI DSS compliance difficult. This situation was consuming a significant amount of time from the IT teams, preventing them from focusing on more strategic initiatives. As a result, DXC Technology began to evaluate other solutions that could streamline and simplify the PCI compliance process.

The Solution

After evaluating three solutions, DXC Technology found that Netwrix Change Tracker was the most optimal solution for their client's environment. It provided full adherence with PCI DSS compliance, leading to a quick deployment across their critical servers. Netwrix Change Tracker File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) solution combines essential security controls with advanced threat prevention, detection, and intelligent change control technology. The implementation of Netwrix Change Tracker greatly minimized the client's attack surface by proactively monitoring and hardening the security configurations of its IT systems, applications, and network devices. The solution also provided complete visibility into the IT network, regulatory compliance automation, and continuous monitoring, allowing the IT team to shift their focus to more strategic security initiatives. The client was also impressed by the support and flexibility of the Security Team assigned to them, who worked round the clock across different global locations.

Operational Impact

The implementation of Netwrix Change Tracker has brought about significant operational benefits for DXC Technology's client. The solution has not only addressed the client's incident management and compliance needs but has also proven to be user-friendly. The client now has complete visibility into its IT network, regulatory compliance automation, and continuous monitoring. This has allowed the IT team to shift their time and efforts to more strategic security initiatives. The client was particularly impressed by the support and flexibility of the Security Team assigned to them. The team was able to work round the clock, across different global locations, customize the solution as necessary, and respond quickly and effectively to the client's needs. This has helped the client achieve a quick ROI from the solution.
