Case Study: Best Western Hotels & Resorts achieves elimination of phishing and uninterrupted email with Guardian Digital EnGarde Cloud Email Security

Protection Against Advanced Persistent Email Threats, Phishing Attacks for Best Western Hotels & Resorts

Best Western Hotels, a global hospitality brand with thousands of properties and over 1,400 corporate users, faced rising email threats — phishing, business email compromise (BEC) and legacy on‑premise appliances that lacked visibility and timely updates. Seeking a fully managed, cloud‑based gateway and expert support, they selected Guardian Digital and deployed its EnGarde Cloud Email Security to protect critical customer data and daily operations.

Guardian Digital implemented EnGarde along with managed services and premium engineering support, delivering customized executive protections and ongoing monitoring. The result was uninterrupted email traffic, a large reduction in spam, quick resolution of configuration issues, and elimination of phishing and BEC attacks — benefits that have sustained Best Western Hotels through an 18‑year partnership with Guardian Digital.
