Case Study: BK Bank achieves comprehensive on-premises and AWS cloud security, blocking almost all 80,000 fraudulent intrusion attempts every five minutes with Fortinet

Brazilian Bank Enhances Onpremises and Cloud-based Network Security With Fortinet

BK Bank is a Brazilian financial-services company that launched in 2015 and now offers digital accounts, prepaid cards and payment services to retail and e‑commerce customers. Facing intensive cyber threats—about 80,000 fraudulent intrusion attempts every five minutes—and subject to PCI DSS audits, the bank needed a unified, enterprise-grade security solution to protect critical web and cloud services.

BK Bank deployed Fortinet solutions—FortiWeb WAF, FortiGate NGFWs, FortiAnalyzer and FortiCNP—supported by Fortinet Cloud Consulting and partner BeOnUp. The integrated platform blocks almost all fraudulent requests, delivers full visibility across on‑premises and AWS environments, simplifies management from a single pane, and streamlines compliance (for example, automating PCI DSS user‑inactivity checks), enabling more proactive operations and scalable cloud growth.
