Case Study: Klenk & Meder achieves centralized, scalable network security and lower operating costs with Fortinet

Electronics Relies on Flexible Efficient Security Solutions to Protect Network

Klenk & Meder GmbH, a major Austrian electrical engineering firm, needed a scalable, centrally managed security approach to protect its headquarters, branches and numerous temporary project sites without restricting users. Rather than deploying standalone firewalls, the company sought a unified solution that would extend its existing Fortinet investment across more than 120 remote access points and simplify secure remote integrations.

Klenk & Meder implemented FortiGate as the network “security center,” with FortiManager for centralized configuration and FortiAnalyzer for logging and reporting. The deployment delivered real‑time threat protection without performance loss, improved bandwidth management and WAN optimization at remote sites, faster security updates and lower operating costs through simplified administration. The project was completed quickly, enabling the company to expand secure mobility and plan additional rollouts.
