How NXLog boosted a biotech S&P100 company’s security operations and compliance

Our customer, a prominent global biotech company, handles sensitive data ranging from proprietary research outputs to personal health information. As such, the client is subject to strict regulatory standards, including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA, mandating the protection of patient health information), Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Regulations (requiring meticulous record-keeping around research and development processes) and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, governing the handling of personal data for international operations), amongst others. Failure to comply could result in severe legal penalties, while a data leak could seriously impact the company's reputation and credibility.

A key factor in any successful risk management and regulatory compliance strategy is a well-established log management process. Comprehensive log management is critical for consistent, continual incident detection and response. It’s also a must-have when it comes to demonstrating data compliance for audit purposes.
