Soteryan Success Story – Abdi Ibrahim

Süleyman Petek, Cyber ​​Security Manager at Abdi İbrahim Pharmaceuticals, shared his experience working with Soteryan.

Petek stated:

“As the Cyber ​​Security Manager at Abdi İbrahim Pharmaceuticals, I am very happy to be working with Soteryan. I would also like to thank them for bringing such a service to Türkiye. Abdi İbrahim Pharmaceuticals is one of the leading pharmaceutical companies serving Türkiye for over 100 years. At the same time, Abdi İbrahim is an important organization aiming for leadership in different markets in different countries through its partnerships in global markets. Data breaches and data theft are significant issues in today’s world. As a leader in Türkiye, we wanted to take serious precautions in this regard. Because we saw high false positive rates in the products we were researching, Soteryan’s low false positive rate was one of the biggest factors in our decision. We saw that it was exactly the product we were looking for, with its integration capabilities and simple, understandable interface, and that’s why we decided to work with Soteryan. Starting to work with Soteryan was very easy. We integrated quickly and got results within minutes.” After this integration, we were able to quickly see the data related to us. Whenever we needed support, we could easily get it via phone. So we are very satisfied with the support. To be frank, Soteryan allows us to sleep soundly at night. Because we truly believe we have a reliable business partner working with, and we trust Soteryan very much. Even though we take precautions, knowing that they will see breaches in the background despite our controls is a reassuring feeling for us. Our first gain was speed. Attackers move very quickly. While we try to keep up with their speed in defending against them, Soteryan provides very rapid support in this regard. Secondly, while other classic CTI products only allow us to see as much data as the attacker leaves behind or allows, now, thanks to Soteryan, we have the chance to see everything they have. In this way, we can perform more detailed analyses, determining where and how the attacker extracted data, how they infected us, and through what means data left from us. Our third gain was integration. In terms of integration, we were able to integrate Soteryan into SIEM and SOAR products, which is something we don’t easily find in other CTI products, thanks to its highly flexible structure, making it more visible. On the other hand, its usability and simplicity of the interface are also important. This has allowed our analyst colleagues to use the product faster, more simply, and more predictably, resulting in greater benefits. Another important feature of Soteryan is its ability to easily demonstrate the return on investment (ROI) among cybersecurity products. For example, showing the impact of any product you buy in the cybersecurity field isn’t always easy. However, using Soteryan, detecting a few data breaches clearly shows how much the product has contributed to our organization, and the financial and prestige losses it will prevent. This is very valuable for us. Soteryan actually gave us the opportunity to see our own picture. When we looked at it, we saw how strong our position was in terms of whether we experienced breaches or not. We thank them once again.
