Case Study: AESI simplifies and automates mission-critical hybrid cloud security with Check Point Software

AESI Acumen Engineered Solutions International Inc./ AESI-US Inc. (‘AESI’) Simplifies Mission-critical Security Operations With Check Point

AESI, a North American engineering and consulting firm serving electric utilities and system operators, needed to secure a hybrid cloud environment end-to-end while reducing the time and cost of security management and gaining the flexibility to respond quickly to threats and events—including supporting a sudden shift to remote work.

AESI deployed Check Point’s ecosystem—Next Generation/Quantum Security Gateways in HA, CloudGuard SaaS for Office 365, SandBlast Agent endpoints (Harmony/Email & Office)—to deliver integrated, automated protection from gateway to endpoint. The solution improved phishing detection (CloudGuard caught all test phishing emails vs. a competitor that missed ~25%), enabled centralized, automated policy and AD-based administration with R81, reduced management overhead and risk, and provided robust remote-user protections and zero-day threat prevention.
