Case Study: Burger King scales secure SD-WAN for hundreds of restaurants with Forcepoint

Burger King scales SD-WAN to 1,000+ locations with Forcepoint

Burger King, a leading quick service restaurant brand in Turkey, faced the challenge of replacing its end-of-life WAN infrastructure across hundreds of locations. They needed a solution to centrally manage their sprawling network, ensure reliable connectivity to prevent revenue loss from downtime, and improve cybersecurity. They partnered with vendor Forcepoint to address these challenges with their Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) and SD-WAN solutions.

Forcepoint implemented a zero-touch cloud deployment of over 1,300 SD-WAN appliances, enabling centralized policy management for all restaurants. This solution provided automatic failover, integrated Advanced Malware Detection, and URL Filtering. The results for Burger King included immediate operational expenditure savings, a significant reduction in network downtime, and robust protection from cyber threats, securing their critical payment and ordering systems.
