Helix stopped a supply-chain BEC campaign before a single invoice was paid

An aerospace-grade manufacturer deployed NUOecurity's XDR fabric to correlate vendor emails, identity signals, and ERP activity — catching a $2.4M invoice-fraud attempt in real time.

The challenge

  • OT + IT convergence introduced new email-borne threats to shop-floor systems.
  • Supply-chain vendors were being used as BEC pivot points into finance.
  • SOC lacked correlation between vendor email compromise and ERP anomalies.

The solution

  • Deployed NUOecurity XDR Fabric with SAP + Coupa correlation connectors.
  • Enabled Guardian AI vendor-risk scoring across 1,200+ supplier mailboxes.
  • Automated invoice-verification workflow when supplier trust score dropped.

The results

  • Blocked a $2.4M invoice fraud attempt from a compromised tier-1 supplier.
  • SOC incident closure time improved 4x through cross-signal correlation.
  • Vendor onboarding security review cut from 3 weeks to 3 days.
"Guardian AI told us a trusted supplier's mailbox was compromised 40 minutes before their finance team even noticed. That single alert paid for the platform ten times over."
