Case Study: Italian Appliance Manufacturer achieves global firewall simplicity and cost savings with Forcepoint Next Generation Firewall

Italian Appliance Manufacturer manages 100+ firewalls worldwide with Forcepoint

An Italian appliance manufacturer, a global leader in espresso machines, faced challenges managing its complex network across 33 countries. The company needed a more efficient and cost-effective way to deliver secure connectivity and visibility while optimizing expensive internet connections. To address this, they turned to Forcepoint and its Next Generation Firewall (NGFW) solution.

Forcepoint implemented its NGFW with centralized management and built-in SD-WAN capabilities. This allowed the company to replace costly MPLS connections with local DSL links, resulting in significant cost savings and increased flexibility. The solution enabled easy management of over a hundred global firewalls, improved internet performance for users, and freed up IT time for more strategic projects. Forcepoint delivered a faster-than-expected return on investment and became a key security partner for the company's future digital transformation.
