Case Study: SMAC boosts productivity and efficiency with Fortinet SASE

SMAC boosts bandwidth 100x with Fortinet

a leading French construction company, was hindered by a legacy MPLS WAN that caused outages and limited bandwidth, particularly for cloud applications. Their siloed networking and security tools created operational complexity as their mobile workforce grew. To address these challenges, SMAC partnered with Fortinet for a network and security modernization.

Fortinet deployed its Secure SD-WAN solution built into FortiGate next-generation firewalls, replacing MPLS with dual broadband links for resilience. They also implemented FortiSASE to provide unified, secure access for remote users. The results included a 100x increase in available bandwidth, reduced administrative costs through centralized management, and enhanced security for all users, delivering a consistent access experience regardless of location.
