Case Study: DigitalOcean achieves faster, lower-cost acquisition onboarding with Eclypsium supply chain security

DigitalOcean saves almost $1M on acquisitions with Eclypsium

DigitalOcean, a cloud services provider, faced a challenge when acquiring a new company with a fleet of over 500 laptops from unverified supply chains. The company needed to ensure the hardware was trustworthy before integration, but replacing all the devices would have been prohibitively expensive and slow. DigitalOcean turned to the vendor Eclypsium to address this supply chain security challenge.

Using the Eclypsium supply chain security solution, DigitalOcean deployed an agent to scan the devices. This allowed them to inventory all hardware and firmware, verifying everything was authentic and free from threats. As a result, DigitalOcean saved nearly $1 million in hardware costs by validating the existing devices instead of replacing them, and completed the technology integration ahead of schedule. Following this success, Eclypsium became a standard part of DigitalOcean's process for onboarding new companies.
