Case Study: TransPak achieves ransomware protection and faster incident response with CrowdStrike Falcon

Cutting-Edge Protection against Ransomware and Other Advanced Threats for a Widely Distributed Organization

TransPak, a family-owned crating, packaging and logistics company founded in 1952 with more than two dozen locations worldwide and 1,500 employees, was growing rapidly and struggling to keep its dispersed IT environment available and performant. Director of IT Mark Sauer found widespread malware and repeated ransomware attacks that took hours to detect and restore from backups, causing extended downtime, lost productivity and heavy manual effort to trace and remediate incidents.

TransPak deployed the cloud-native CrowdStrike Falcon platform and added Falcon OverWatch managed hunting, gaining instant visibility and lightweight endpoint protection without disrupting users. The Falcon agent enabled fast detection and remote containment (even from a phone), eliminated the ineffective legacy AV, purged malware, prevented a serious server compromise, reduced help-desk burden, and freed the small IT team to focus on business-critical systems and productivity.
