Case Study: Dell SecureWorks strengthens protection and reduces security costs with Fortinet

WhatWorks in Intrusion Prevention and Detection Innovating and Evolving at a Manager Security Services Provider

Dell SecureWorks, a managed security services provider, needed to broaden its product portfolio to meet customer demand for higher-performance, cost-effective security while maintaining scalable, partner-driven offerings. The company sought solutions that would enhance protection of IT assets, reduce overall security costs, and support growing partnerships across enterprise and branch environments.

SecureWorks added Fortinet solutions — including FortiGate, FortiAnalyzer, FortiManager and FortiWeb — into its managed services, integrating Fortinet updates with its Counter Threat Platform and 24x7 Security Operations Center. Deployments are typically completed within 30 days; SecureWorks now manages hundreds of Fortinet devices (physical and virtual), delivering high throughput, granular IPS/application control, web/URL filtering and centralized monitoring. The result: scalable, cost-effective protection, faster time-to-deploy, strong vendor support and high customer satisfaction.
