“Our platform receives more than a billion visitors each week from our website and mobile app,” said Michael Mullins, chief information security officer, Liquid. “While the vast majority of our traffic is legitimate, a significant percentage comes from cyber groups who are looking for opportunities to breach our platform.

“As we continue to operate in a very challenging environment, Sumo Logic provides us with critical information we need to defend our systems, data and customers,” said Mullins. “Cloud SIEM has become an essential part of our business and technology architecture that has enabled us to give our customers confidence as a highly secure regulated exchange.”

Its cloud-native, multi-tenant, elastic scale approach helps break silos which hinder modern security workflows by enabling security, IT and DevOps teams to collaborate with common analytics and workflow.
