Case Study: Getronics achieves stronger virtual security and simplified management with Check Point Software (Security Gateway VE)

Getronics - Customer Case Study

Getronics, a KPN-owned leader in workspace management, connectivity and data center services with 12,000 employees and the largest IT services presence in the Benelux, needed to embrace virtualization without sacrificing functionality, quality, flexibility or manageability. The company required a proven virtual firewall and security management solution from a stable supplier that would retain existing capabilities, simplify multi-tenant operations and be cost-effective.

Getronics deployed Check Point Security Gateway Virtual Edition on VMware along with Check Point Multi‑Domain Security Management to deliver hypervisor-level firewall, IPS and anti‑malware protection and centralized administration across virtual domains. The solution removed the need for physical appliances, reduced hardware and operational costs, enabled fast remote response and on‑demand scaling, and improved overall security while simplifying management.
