Case Study: LUMA Foundation achieves hyperscalable security for artists and digital collections with Check Point Software's Maestro

Protecting Artists and Their Creations With Check Point Maestro

LUMA Foundation’s LUMA Arles is a cultural complex that supports artists in producing and presenting experimental work. Faced with the need to protect personal data, safeguard fragile digital artworks and workstations, and simultaneously provide open, high‑capacity access for visitors and large-scale virtual or holographic exhibits, LUMA required a security solution that could scale instantly to highly variable demands.

LUMA deployed Check Point Maestro as a central, hyperscalable security layer—leveraging VPN, IPS and SandBlast technologies—to filter all traffic and connect workstations securely at startup. The result: rapid, minutes‑level deployment and on‑demand scaling, automatic gateway configuration, strong protection for digital collections and hundreds of visitors, and streamlined operation by a small team, with the solution ready to support future expansion.
