Case Study: Dave's Hot Chicken achieves scalable, secure growth with Fortinet

Dave's Hot Chicken secures 75 new franchises a year with Fortinet

Dave's Hot Chicken, one of America's fastest-growing restaurants, faced the challenge of securely scaling its operations to open approximately 75 new franchises each year. The company needed to ensure reliable network uptime for its modern point-of-sale systems, achieve PCI DSS compliance, and manage risks from cloud systems and public Wi-Fi. To address this, they turned to Fortinet for a secure networking solution.

Fortinet implemented an end-to-end security architecture using FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls, FortiSwitch, and FortiAP for secure LAN and wireless connectivity, managed centrally with FortiManager and fortified by FortiGuard AI-Powered Security Services. This solution provided Dave's Hot Chicken with enhanced network resilience and reliable uptime, directly supporting its rapid growth. The results included improved PCI DSS compliance and a reduced risk of reputational damage from public Wi-Fi misuse.
