The Big Data Excellence Awards celebrate the top performers working at the forefront of data, analytics, the Internet of Things and Big Data.

Named in the Outstanding Data Analytics Solution Category for its work with the County Durham and Darlington Federation NHS Trust, Typhon has been recognised for its outstanding performance in the extraction of actionable intelligence from the Trust’s Terabytes of historic security log data.

The project, part of strategic review of CDDFT’s network security controls, policies and procedures provided a detailed base-line status report in just a few hours including evidence of previously undetected instances of compromise that required immediate, decisive action to prevent a potential data breach and operational disruptions.

CDDFT, Security Manager Tony McGivern commented

“One reason we were excited about Xanadata’s product moving forward is we use and leverage information and intelligence outside of one vendor and integrate with thousands of intelligence agents,” he said. “We are very happy with our vendors and have global threat intelligence and coupling that with a neighbouring organisation and going through the Xanadata suite gives us full confidence that we would have picked it up.”

The winners will be announced at an awards dinner in London on 15^th May.
