The Challenge
Fragmented Security, Complex Compliance
As a global organization with operations in both the US and UAE, The New England Center for Children (NECC) faced significant cybersecurity and compliance hurdles.
Their existing setup relied on disconnected SIEM and alerting platforms, creating blind spots and slowing response times. This siloed approach made it difficult to correlate data from their diverse technology stack, hindering their ability to proactively catch potentially malicious events before they become an incident.
NECC also faced a critical need to meet stringent data residency and compliance requirements.
The Solution
A Unified Security Foundation with Catalyst Citadel
To modernize operations and consolidate visibility, NECC partnered with Foresite to deploy Google SecOps through the Catalyst Citadel platform.
The deployment integrated data from across NECC’s global infrastructure—on-prem, endpoint, and cloud—into a single, unified security operations environment.
Foresite’s 24×7x365 managed SOC provided:
- Continuous monitoring and alerting
- Automated playbooks through SOAR integration
- Rapid incident correlation and response
- Ongoing tuning and maturity support to strengthen posture over time
This migration shifted NECC’s security model from reactive to proactive—empowering the team to anticipate and contain threats faster.
Real security transformation. Proven in practice.
See how NECC unified global visibility, strengthened compliance readiness, and moved to proactive threat detection with Google SecOps.
The Outcome
Scalable, Compliant, and Proactive Security
The partnership with Foresite and the migration to Catalyst powered by Google SecOps provided NECC with a centralized and powerful security platform, leading to significant operational and security improvements.
-
Unified Visibility and Data Correlation: By consolidating multipple telemetry sources into Google SecOps, NECC gained the ability to correlate data from its entire tech stack. Enabling more effective threat hunting and a holistic view of their security landscape, directly addressing one of their primary pain points.
-
Proactive Threat Detection: With a unified platform and Foresite’s continuous monitoring, NECC can now more effectively identify and remediate threats before they escalate into major incidents. The project included the deployment of custom rules and dashboards to surface insights and validate use cases.
-
Streamlined Compliance and Governance: Google SecOps’ architecture supports data residency, auditability, to meet complex regulatory needs and supporting the goal of achieving NIST CSF alignment.
