Case Study: Best Value Chem achieves unified IT/OT security and reduced downtime with Fortinet Security Fabric

Best Value Chem cuts admin time to 2 hours a week with Fortinet

Best Value Chem (BVC), a global specialty chemicals manufacturer, faced challenges with fragmented IT and OT networks that limited visibility and security across its plants. With a lean IT team, BVC needed a unified architecture to simplify operations. They turned to Fortinet for a solution involving next-generation firewalls and centralized management.

Fortinet implemented its Security Fabric, converging IT and OT with FortiGate NGFWs, FortiManager, and FortiAnalyzer for centralized policy management and OT-aware protection. This solution provided BVC with improved visibility and operational resilience. The results included fewer downtime incidents, faster recovery, and a massive reduction in administrative time to just two hours per week. Fortinet also helped BVC advance its sustainability goals through streamlined infrastructure.
