The Challenge
b Spot operates in a highly regulated industry and requires robust security practices to protect personal information from unauthorized access. The company needed a trusted security solution that could be quickly implemented and managed by a small team. During their competitive analysis, b Spot included AlienVault among the top contenders. The decision was influenced by a recommendation from a colleague in the aerospace industry who trusted AlienVault for its security capabilities. After evaluating AlienVault, b Spot decided it was the right fit for their security needs.
About The Customer
Founded in Los Angeles, California in 2012, b Spot is a revolutionary mobile-based game network that allows players to bet and win real cash. The company offers free-to-play mobile games, and when players are ready to place a bet, they can make a cash wager. All payouts are determined by live horse races. As part of the registration process, players must provide personal information to verify their identity. With around 50 employees, b Spot operates in the entertainment, gambling, and mobile games industries. The company maintains robust security practices to protect personal information from unauthorized access.
The Solution
b Spot chose AlienVault Unified Security Management (USM) platform for its security needs. AlienVault USM offers multiple security features, including threat intelligence updates, correlation directives, IDS signatures, vulnerability audits, asset discovery signatures, IP reputation data, data source plugins, and report templates. b Spot found significant value in AlienVault Labs, a research team that provides threat intelligence updates. The company used correlation directives from AlienVault Labs to detect and respond to POODLE attacks. Additionally, AlienVault’s Open Threat Exchange (OTX) allows members to share threat information, helping b Spot avoid breaches and minimize damage from attacks. As b Spot continues to grow, they rely on AlienVault USM to ensure their customer’s data is safely guarded.
Operational Impact
  • AlienVault USM’s cross-platform operation in the cloud and its foundation on open-source software were key factors in b Spot's selection.
  • Upon activation, AlienVault USM provided immediate ROI by detecting threats that were previously unseen.
  • After the POODLE attack, b Spot was able to quickly remediate the threat and clean up hosts with the help of AlienVault Labs' threat intelligence.
Quantitative Benefit
  • Employee count: ~50
