Case Study: Bio-Techne achieves stronger ecommerce security and faster page loads with Akamai Managed Security Service

Bio-Techne blocks 99% of attacks with Akamai

Bio-Techne, a leading manufacturer of life science research tools, faced a growing volume of cyberattacks threatening its vital ecommerce operations. The company's IT team was spending excessive time responding to security alerts and even working through the night to counter threats, which risked costly downtime. To address this, Bio-Techne turned to Akamai Technologies for its security expertise and Managed Security Service.

Akamai implemented its Managed Security Service, including its Security Operations Command Center (SOCC) for 24/7 monitoring, Bot Manager, and a web application firewall. This solution provided proactive threat alerts and remediation guidance, blocking 99% of attacks. The results included a 69% average reduction in image size for faster page loads, higher search engine rankings, and the elimination of all-night security emergencies, allowing Bio-Techne's team to focus on other work.
