Maria Fladung
IT Security Officer at EDAG
It was clear to us that we would only be able to start again properly and safely if we were able to identify dangerous behavior in the network quickly and precisely. Vectra's automated platform enables us to do just that - 24/7. Our IT security experts can now work much more efficiently.”
