Case Study: Bonnier News improves site speed and security with Fastly

Bonnier News speeds sites and blocks attacks with Fastly, reaching 4.5 million readers daily

Bonnier News, a major Nordic media company, faced operational complexity and security challenges due to a fragmented technology stack built from numerous mergers and acquisitions. They were also vulnerable to DDoS attacks, especially during major events like national elections, which threatened their service availability. This led them to seek a new content delivery network (CDN) provider, ultimately selecting Fastly for its programmable edge platform.

Fastly implemented its CDN, Next-Gen WAF with Bot Management, and Compute services to address these challenges. The migration resulted in immediate improvements in site speed, boosting SEO and user experience, and provided robust security that neutralized large-scale attacks. Furthermore, the solution fostered innovation and a unified company culture, with Bonnier News developing a new proof of concept in just 4-6 weeks.
