Challenge

Protecting Critical Infrastructure from Emerging Threats
A regional utility company running power distribution systems faced growing cybersecurity threats, including a ransomware incident that briefly disrupted administrative systems. Existing antivirus tools lacked centralized control and real-time threat visibility.

With legacy OT and IT environments operating in silos, it was difficult to monitor endpoints across substations and administrative offices. The company needed proactive threat prevention, continuous vulnerability monitoring, and rapid recovery in case of an attack.

Solution

Integrated Threat Protection and Recovery Framework
Wilco IT Solutions deployed SentinelOne for AI-driven endpoint detection and response (EDR), providing automated containment and rollback capabilities. Using ConnectSecure, we implemented continuous vulnerability scanning and compliance reporting.

For business continuity, Acronis Cyber Protect was configured for hybrid backup and disaster recovery across cloud and on-premises environments. Real-time dashboards provided SOC visibility over all endpoints and servers.

Regular training and simulations ensured that staff could recognize and respond quickly to security incidents.

Impact

Zero Breaches, Faster Recovery, Greater Confidence

Gained 24/7 visibility and proactive alerting for all critical systems.

Achieved zero ransomware incidents post-deployment.

Reduced system recovery time from 3 days to under 2 hours.

Strengthened compliance with NERC-CIP cybersecurity standards.
