Case Study: Meritrust Credit Union achieves real-time visibility, control and protection from rogue devices with ForeScout CounterACT

Meritrust Credit Union Puts ForeScout CounterACT® to Work for Real-Time Visibility, Control and Protection From Rogue Network Devices

Meritrust Credit Union, a Kansas-based financial institution with 15 branches and about 2,000 networked devices, needed better real-time visibility and protection against rogue or noncompliant endpoints across its distributed environment. The IT team wanted an agentless solution that would work with multi-vendor switches and avoid the overhead of installing agents on thin clients and embedded devices.

Meritrust deployed ForeScout CounterACT, gaining immediate, single-pane visibility of every endpoint and automated policy enforcement: new devices are classified, quarantined, and remediated in real time, compliance checks and AV updates are automated, and one-click audit reports simplify audits. The result was faster help-desk resolution, reduced manual effort, stronger network control and rapid time-to-value from day one.
