THL Case Study:
Securing 35+ Portfolio Companies with 24/7 Multi-Signal MDR

Thomas H. Lee Partners (THL) is a US-based Private Equity firm that actively invests in 35+ mid-market growth companies across the Business and Financial Services, Consumer and Retail, Healthcare, and Media, Information Services and Technology industries. THL wanted to ensure their portfolio companies are protected from cyberattacks so the management teams could focus on scaling the business, so they wanted a trusted security partner that provided:

• Complete visibility into the cybersecurity posture of each portfolio company in a standardized and easy-to-consume way.
• A holistic view of the threat landscape impacting their portfolio companies, phishing and security awareness training for their employees, and the ability to identify cyber risks to protect their assets and help them mature.

THL collaborated with CISOs from their portfolio companies to align on the goals and the approach to take prior to partnering with a security provider. The firm eventually chose eSentire to be their trusted security partner to provide:

• Managed Detection and Response (MDR) to safeguard against cyberattacks and deliver 24/7 threat detection, containment, and response, continuous security monitoring, regular threat briefings, and access to world-renowned threat intelligence expertise.
• Managed Phishing and Security Awareness Training (PSAT) to help identify risk areas for employees, test user resilience, and drive behavioral change across all users.
