Fintech company strengthens infrastructure visibility with Fleet

A financial technology company provides payroll, benefits, and HR services to thousands of businesses.

Its infrastructure includes corporate laptops, production servers, and cloud systems that must meet strict security standards.

Fleet provides deep visibility into these systems and supports the company’s defense-in-depth security strategy.

At a glance

Industry: Fintech and payroll services
Devices managed: ~5,000 devices across laptops and cloud infrastructure
Primary requirements: osquery visibility, GitOps workflows, flexible hosting
Previous challenge: gaps in infrastructure visibility

The challenge

The company already used several security tools, including endpoint protection platforms. However, those tools did not provide the level of query-based visibility required for deep investigations.

Ephemeral cloud infrastructure also created blind spots. Security teams needed a way to verify the state of systems that might exist only briefly.

The evaluation criteria

The team prioritized three capabilities:

Flexible hosting
Support both self-hosted and cloud deployments.
GitOps policy management
Manage security policies through code.
Advanced osquery queries
Enable deep security investigations across the fleet.

The solution

Fleet provides a direct view into system state using osquery telemetry.

Security teams use live and scheduled queries to detect vulnerabilities, investigate incidents, and verify compliance across the environment.

Fleet also integrates with internal tools such as Slack and identity providers to automate incident response workflows.

The results

Fleet improved the company’s ability to monitor and respond to security events.

Faster investigations: Security teams can run complex queries across thousands of systems.
Improved infrastructure visibility: Both laptops and cloud instances are monitored consistently.
Automated security workflows: Integrations with internal systems accelerate incident response.

Fleet gives the team a reliable view of their infrastructure. By combining deep telemetry with automation, Fleet helps the company maintain strong security while supporting a fast-moving engineering environment.
