Case Study: focusIT achieves effortless, auto-scaling AWS security with Bitdefender

Bitdefender Security-As-A-Service For AWS replaces traditional security and delivers highest quality integration

FocusIT, a Scottsdale-based SaaS provider serving the mortgage and financial industries with roughly 25 staff, more than 1,000 customers and about 15,000 end users, needed security that could keep pace with rapid growth and cloud auto-scaling. Managing roughly 1,200 endpoints and adding 20–50 servers per month, FocusIT required a solution that eliminated the operational burden of traditional AV and kept updates and installations transparent for customers — so they turned to Bitdefender and its Security-as-a-Service for AWS / Security for Virtualized Environments.

Bitdefender deployed host-level protection that automatically distributes to guest instances, offloads scanning to hosts, and runs across both FocusIT’s private cloud and AWS public cloud. The result: FocusIT can effortlessly scale while adding 20–50 servers monthly, secure its ~1,200 endpoints across >1,000 customers, maintain seamless performance for end users, and reduce operational overhead — with Bitdefender’s responsive professional support helping ensure smooth ongoing management.
