The English Institute of Sport (EIS) is a leading organization in the field of high-performance sports. Established in 2002, EIS is a national organization that provides sports science and medicine expertise to Olympic and Paralympic athletes, as well as those competing in other major international competitions. EIS is committed to supporting athletes and coaches in achieving the highest level of success through the delivery of a range of services, including physiotherapy, psychology, nutrition, biomechanics, and strength and conditioning. With over 500 staff members working across 30 sports, EIS has a significant impact on the success of British athletes at major sporting events. However, with a large amount of sensitive data being handled by the organization, EIS needed to ensure that their systems and data remained secure at all times. EIS's IT team consisted of a few members with a lot of responsibilities, and they lacked the resources to address all the security challenges effectively. They were looking for a managed security solution that could help them mitigate cyber risks, provide visibility into their security posture, and reduce the burden on their internal team. This is where ThreatDefence came in. EIS chose ThreatDefence's SecOps platform to provide them with anomaly detection and threat intelligence within their security environment. The platform provided real-time visibility, risk monitoring, and reporting on all suspicious security events. Moreover, the platform's Dark Web visibility component allowed EIS to identify some risky users who had been previously undetected.

ThreatDefence not only gave us visibility into our security posture, but also provided actionable intelligence to help us address issues that we didn't even know existed. The Dark Web visibility component was particularly useful in identifying risky users, allowing as to act proactively. The platform's holistic view of all our security data has been very valuable in enabling us to stay one step ahead of potential threats.

ThreatDefence's SecOps platform helped EIS to better understand their cyber security posture and get valuable insights into their cyber risks. The platform provided a holistic view around all security anomalies, allowing EIS to identify suspicious security events in the environment. This allowed EIS to focus on their daily functions without having to worry about cyber security threats. “We have a small team with a lot of duties and responsibilities. ThreatDefence really took time to understand our challenges and constraints and focused on what was really important for us,” said Mark Richards.
