Platform Use Cases for Energy Customers
The Use Case Explorer for the Splunk Platform helps you develop new use cases using either Splunk Enterprise or Splunk Cloud Platform. The Explorer gives you an easy way to access use cases that are especially relevant for particular industries, such as Finance, Healthcare, Public Sector and more.
We’ve just updated the Use Case Explorer with a new section for Energy sector customers. This section contains a number of use cases with searches that are specific to Operational Technology environments, allowing you to improve the security of these environments and ensure compliance with key legislation.
If you’re an energy customer, be sure to bookmark this page - we’ll be adding to it over the coming weeks with more energy-specific content, including new guidance on using Splunk Edge Hub with energy meters.
