How Exeon.NDR made the difference
Azure cloud deployment
Exeon presented their hardware-free solution that is cost- and time-efficient both in set-up and in operations for Planzer’s evaluation. The 100% software-based Exeon.NDR was deployed as a virtual machine in the customer’s Azure cloud. The set-up for the numerous locations only took a single day.
Proactive monitoring
Through this integration, all Planzer sites and networks can be monitored. With the algorithm-driven threat scoring, their network is constantly under a “magnifying glass”, and anomalies and potential attacks are immediately reported via an alert.
Data for defense
The Planzer security team easily navigates through the log data to go back in time in case a security incident or problem happens: anomalies consider historic data and make them visual in order to find root causes efficiently.
High efficiency
As a consequence of this efficiency, Exeon.NDR is now not only used by the security team, but also by the operations department in order to monitor the usage of the systems across all locations, to plan, and to verify network changes.
Protected legacy
With highly protected legacy systems and clever data handling, including flow data collection (NetFlow) from multiple global locations, Planzer is a satisfied, long-term customer, representing a milestone in Exeon’s existence.

Financial sector: Monitoring ATM machines continent-wide
ATM machines are very closed machines by default, so monitoring them is quite difficult as you cannot install any agent on them. Hence, the Exeon team used a different approach—an example of how extended logs in Exeon.NDR are used to create completely new use cases and solve even complex requirements in a very simple way.
