About Vertiv
Vertiv delivers critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, focusing on power management, thermal management, and IT infrastructure. The company supports data centers, communication networks, and industrial environments by designing, building, and servicing systems that ensure reliable, efficient, and scalable operations. Vertiv combines deep industry expertise with innovative technologies to help businesses meet the demands of an always-connected world.
Overview
Vertiv, a global leader in critical digital infrastructure, needed to modernize its security operations to manage growing security data and evolving threats. Traditional tools lacked the scalability and speed required, leading Vertiv to adopt Google Security Operations. With this unified, scalable platform—enhanced by Gemini in SecOps for AI-driven search and automation—Vertiv strengthened its ability to detect, investigate, and respond to threats faster, building a more efficient and proactive cybersecurity posture.
The Challenge
As a global organization with a complex IT infrastructure, Vertiv was looking for centralized tools to manage a rapidly growing volume of security data and respond effectively to evolving threats. Traditional security tools failed to provide the scalable compute infrastructure and integrated capabilities that Vertiv’s security analysts needed to investigate and resolve incidents quickly.
The Solution
Vertiv adopted Google Security Operations, which offers a comprehensive platform and unified experience to drive better threat detection, investigation, and response. Vertiv can now ingest telemetry data at scale while empowering its security analysts to quickly search for events, analyze and investigate real-time activity, and drive faster, consistent responses with playbook automation. In addition, Gemini in Security Operations helps Vertiv leverage the power of generative AI to quickly develop search queries using natural language and get even faster results.
Summary
Mike Orosz, CISO at Vertiv, explains how the company strengthened its security operations by adopting Google Cloud, specifically Google Security Operations. By leveraging this platform along with Gemini in Google SecOps, Vertiv accelerated and automated threat detection, investigation, and response across its systems, streamlining workflows and significantly boosting investigation efficiency. As a result, Vertiv increased its log data ingestion by 22 times, enabling greater visibility into potential threats, detected three times more events, and closed investigations 50% faster compared to their previous solution, enhancing their ability to address evolving cybersecurity challenges and move toward a more strategic, proactive security posture.
