How Tri-State Generation & Transmission Association Protects Against Cyberattacks

Challenge

Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association faced the urgent need to protect its critical infrastructure against escalating cyberattack threats to the national power grid, necessitating real-time monitoring and threat detection across a vast service territory.

Solution

By adopting Vectra's Network Detection and Response platform, Tri-State gained immediate visibility into its internal networks, enabling real-time monitoring and addressing of security issues. The platform's data science, machine learning, and behavioral analysis proactively detected and prioritized threats, providing intelligent security that surpassed the limitations of traditional tools like firewalls and intrusion prevention systems.

Customer benefits

Vectra not only eliminated false-positive threats, preventing unnecessary interruptions in business processes but also streamlined threat investigations by displaying significant threats in real time based on contextual scoring. Tri-State plans to expand the platform to power plants and field locations, anticipating enhanced security across its critical infrastructure with automated, real-time breach detection.

“Vectra gives us visibility into our networks, so we can monitor our internal hosts and address any security issues in real-time.”
