Security for distributed and diverse retail environments

Case Studies

With an IT team of just three people protecting 350 endpoints across 30 locations, James Donaldson & Sons realised it was time to step up their defences.

Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza needed a security solution that could protect its remote sites from Internet-borne malware, with easy and centralized management.

Space2B reached out to Sophos Gold Partner Amitech IT for a reliable and user-friendly solution. In particular, they wanted to ensure that the Wi-Fi was fast, easy to implement, and would integrate with their on-site systems.

Following a ransomware attack, Papparich Malaysia looked to improve their endpoint protection to avoid data loss and business disruptions by future cyberattacks. System Integrator InfoCrest Technologies recommended Sophos. Find out how Sophos Endpoint Protection and Intercept X made a difference.

The main IT security challenges faced at the Group included keeping endpoints, servers, and remote desktop users safe. In addition, the Group stores vast amounts of confidential data on its customers, so keeping this protected was also vital.

The company’s massive scale of operations necessitates the use of more than 20 servers, 250 endpoints and a number of supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) networks. With several retail points and branches across the country, security and visibility over the network was a point of top concern.
