"Prevention is cheaper than a breach"

Success Story

A multinational pharmaceutical company connected its international offices through an extensive MPLS network, reliable but characterized at very high costs and limited operational flexibility. WhySecurity has redesigned the entire infrastructure, transforming it into a secure and centrally governed international extranet, capable of connecting 30 offices and 6 production plants distributed throughout the world.The architecture was created by integrating three different enterprise-grade security technologies, selected to minimize residual risk and ensure resilience, continuity and control. The project included a centralized network management model, the event monitoring, communications protection and specific measures to mitigate data exfiltration attempts. The result is a more secure, scalable, and sustainable global network, with reduced costs and greater visibility across the entire infrastructure.

The Challenge

1
Hub and spoke network latencies slowed down applications and access between globally distributed locations.
2
Different policies for users and countries made consistent, secure, and truly centralized management complex.
3
Offices with different requirements and habits hindered common standards and uniform controls across all locations
4
Shadow IT reduced visibility and control, increasing risks, inefficiencies and attack surfaces.
5
There was no management plan with formalized and shared roles, procedures, responsibilities and operational criteria

The Solutions

1
Centralized services in high-performance Private Clouds, in secure and highly resilient data centers.
2
Adopted advanced virtualization, including security, segregation and full control of resources
3
Unify network, system, and security events in a single, clear, and fully centralized console.
4
Defined global policies by profile, location and risk with consistent and centralized governance for all.
5
Formalized processes, roles and responsibilities for stable, measurable and replicable management today
