Situation
The IT team at Levi Stadium wanted to ensure that no internal or external cyber attacks impacted the stadium infrastructure during the Super Bowl.
Solution
We installed our AI-based security solution to monitor all internal, external, ingress and egress network traffic. We monitored the entire network infrastructure at 20-Gbs fully inspected throughput.
Results
Utilizing AI-based machine learning, with deep packet inspection we found:
• 25 Million attack events during the Super Bowl
• 600,000 attacks were never before seen attack types
We found 2 internal critical servers that were compromised months prior to the Super Bowl and these compromises were undetected in testing done prior to the Super Bowl by:
• Levi’s Stadium IT staff
• Independent cyber security consultants
• NFL cyber security team
• Department of Homeland Security cyber security team
Due to our AI-based CC/B1 detection capabilities, compromised servers were taken offline during the Super Bowl. CloudCover B1 protected the Super Bowl 50 from potential compromise, and thus loss of TV broadcast.
