Odlum Brown boosts operations 75% faster with Fortinet

Odlum Brown, an independent investment firm in Canada, faced operational complexity and limited visibility due to its legacy network and firewalls. This environment slowed troubleshooting, impacted cloud application performance, and lacked the agility needed for the firm's cloud-first strategy. To modernize, they turned to Fortinet for a secure foundation.

Fortinet implemented its Security Fabric, deploying next-generation firewalls, secure switching, wireless, and Secure SD-WAN across all locations, plus virtual FortiGate appliances in Microsoft Azure. This integrated solution enabled consistent policy enforcement and dynamic traffic routing. As a result, Odlum Brown achieved a 75% improvement in operational efficiency for troubleshooting, strengthened its zero-trust posture, and significantly improved cloud application performance and user experience.
