Global Segmentation
Outcome
Booz Allen was able to dramatically reduce our client’s operating risks by delivering a risked-based approach to digital segmentation. The segmentation structure and creation of digital blast zones increased global OT/IT protections by 40% including a 52.4% improvement by geography. For the first time, their entire network is visible – this transparency reduces the time to detect and respond to cyber attacks – driving measurable financial outcomes and reputational enhancements for the client.
The Situation
A Fortune 500 enterprise had just acquired a European company when it was hit by a catastrophic cyber attack. A ransomware incident highlighted legacy tech issues to the board of a global enterprise, they brought in Booz Allen to establish a resilient future-state infrastructure.

The Approach
Booz Allen quickly realized that the firm desperately needed to implement global segmentation across their entire digital footprint (from IT to OT and beyond) to create structure throughout their organization to reduce vulnerabilities in the event of a cyber attack.
The solution included a phased OT/IT modernization strategy that established segmentation across the firm and created regional blast zones to digitally isolate any areas if attacked.
