Vattenfall Standardizes Security Telemetry on Elastic
Vattenfall, a utilities organization in Sweden, uses Elastic Observability from Elastic to support detection engineering for detection engineers.
Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Risk and compliance | Security telemetry can be reviewed without waiting on a personal export |
| Risk and compliance | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for security telemetry |
| Capability | Detection engineering stays visible to adjacent teams through Elastic Observability |
Story
Utilities work at Vattenfall spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in Sweden. Security telemetry was splitting across regional habits. Detection engineers asked for a shared way to run detection engineering without freezing local judgment.
Elastic (Elastic Observability) is what they standardized on. Elastic builds search, observability, and security software on Elasticsearch, used to find information and investigate operational data. Vattenfall uses it as the system of record for security telemetry, with detection engineers 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 The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
