Case Study: Beaumont Products, Inc. regains control of its office network with ContentWatch ContentProtect Security Appliance

ContentWatch Appliance Helps Company Take Back Control of Office Network

Beaumont Products, Inc., a manufacturing firm in Kennesaw, GA with 50-plus PCs, was struggling with intermittent network slowdowns and had no way to identify who or what was consuming bandwidth. IT Director Mike Bailey needed per-user visibility and the ability to block or limit risky sites and applications, so he selected the ContentProtect Security Appliance from ContentWatch to address those needs.

ContentWatch’s ContentProtect appliance — combining anti-virus/anti-spyware, bandwidth management, web filtering and IM/peer‑to‑peer control — gave Bailey real-time monitoring and reporting, group-based policies, and per-application throttling. The deployment let him instantly identify offenders rather than spending upwards of an hour troubleshooting, enforce tailored restrictions by user/group, and restore predictable network performance while keeping the flexibility to expand controls as needs evolve.
