Case Study: Specialty Pharmaceutical Company achieves secure, scalable global medication delivery with Fortinet FortiGate Virtual Appliance

Delivering Personalized Medications to Patients Around the World

A global specialty pharmaceutical company that creates personalized medications needed to protect life‑sensitive intellectual property and patient data as it grew. With thousands of employees, a BYOD program, multiple facilities and a hybrid cloud footprint (Azure and AWS), the business required a secure, scalable infrastructure that guaranteed data integrity and continuity across regions.

The company deployed the Fortinet FortiGate Virtual Appliance to add an end‑to‑end security layer across cloud and on‑premises environments. The FortiGate VM outperformed alternatives in benchmarks and failure simulations, enabled SSL encryption for remote and BYOD users, supported multi‑cloud/hypervisor platforms, and delivered automated failover, business continuity, and measurable technical and economic benefits.
