Case Study: The Nottingham Building Society achieves centralized endpoint security and lower TCO with HEAT Software (HEAT EMSS)

The Nottingham Building Society - Customer Case Study

The Nottingham Building Society, a long-established UK mortgage and savings institution, needed to simplify and tighten endpoint security and patch management across more than 1,000 servers and endpoints while supporting growth through acquisitions and branch expansion. IT security lead Ken Johnson had already been using HEAT Patch and Remediation successfully but faced the ongoing challenge of reducing complexity, improving visibility, and meeting audit and compliance demands across diverse platforms.

They upgraded to the HEAT Endpoint Management & Security Suite (EMSS), consolidating AntiVirus, Application Control, Device Control and Patch and Remediation into a single console and agent architecture. The result was simpler administration, lower TCO, faster system updates (within hours), centralized, audit-ready reporting, stronger controls over removable media and application execution, and positive support engagement from HEAT.
