Story
Utilities work at Xcel Energy spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. Endpoint detection was splitting across regional habits. SOC analysts asked for a shared way to run security operations without freezing local judgment.
CyberArk (Identity Security) is what they standardized on. CyberArk focuses on privileged access and identity security so organizations can control high-risk credentials and machine identities. Xcel Energy uses it as the system of record for endpoint detection, with SOC analysts as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
