Case Study: Winning Group achieves scalable application security and real-time visibility with Fastly

Winning Group - Customer Case Study

Winning Group, a growing Australian appliance retailer with multiple web properties, needed stronger application-layer protection and better visibility as its e-commerce business expanded. Before working with Fastly, the team relied on a mix of CDN, firewall, and coding practices, but they lacked real-time insight into traffic, bot activity, and web attacks, while manual investigation and slow vendor support were draining developer time.

Fastly’s Next-Gen WAF, implemented with Section.io, provided automated detection and blocking, real-time traffic visibility, and hands-off maintenance. The result was faster incident response, reduced developer overhead, and better site performance by stopping traffic spikes that slowed search queries; Winning Group deployed Fastly in about a month and now protects four web properties, with plans to expand further.
