Make growth happen
As a multinational life sciences enterprise, the client had already established security operations capabilities. However, with business expansion and increasing requirements for security maturity, the original platform had gradually shown its limitations. In the face of an ever-changing threat environment and growing internal compliance requirements, the client urgently needed a more powerful, flexible, and evolvable unified security operations platform.
Client transformation journey

A legacy platform
The original platform struggled with scalability and lacked mature operational capabilities. It offered limited advanced detection, poor use‑case management, and insufficient support for 24/7 continuous operations. As a result, the multinational life sciences enterprise recognized the need to ensure business continuity while building an evolving, sustainable security operations model capable of confidently addressing future threats.
A phased migration and platform setup
Through a systematic migration approach and phased delivery, KPMG China helped deploy Splunk ES, collaborated with the original vendor to ensure orderly data handover, unified log ingestion, and implemented 200 standardized detection rules and visual dashboards.
A sustainable, long-term security operations model
The transformation delivered a mature, enterprise-grade security operations model that fundamentally changed how the organization monitors, responds to, and manages risks. The implementation of a new security operations model allowed for centralized log and event management, clearer incident response, better visualization for decisions, and a strong foundation for future Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) and advanced detection.
How we make the difference
One of the primary reasons this multinational life sciences enterprise selected KPMG was our depth of experience with Splunk ES, including security operations center (SOC) build‑outs, use case development, and migration from legacy platforms.
KPMG understands that upgrading a security operations platform is not just about replacing tools — it requires a comprehensive transformation of processes, people, and capabilities. We welcome the opportunity to help you think about how to select, design, and implement a unified security operations platform that can transform your security posture.
