Case Study: FUNKE Mediengruppe achieves simpler, more secure remote access with Fortinet Unified SASE

FUNKE Mediengruppe boosts security and productivity across 100 remote sites with Fortinet Unified SASE

Funke Mediengruppe, a leading German media group, faced security concerns and scalability limitations with its legacy VPN solution. The company needed to provide secure, reliable connectivity for its distributed hybrid workforce across multiple countries and remote sites. To address this challenge, Funke Mediengruppe selected Fortinet and its FortiSASE solution as part of a Unified SASE approach.

Fortinet implemented its Unified SASE services, which integrated with Funke's existing Fortinet Secure SD-WAN. The solution included ZTNA, Secure Web Gateway, CASB, and Firewall-as-a-Service. This provided employees with faster, more reliable access to applications, significantly improving productivity. The enhanced security reduced the risk of data breaches, while centralized management increased operational efficiency and freed IT staff to focus on business initiatives.
