Case Study: Danish Wholesale Trading Company achieves proactive ransomware protection and rapid incident response with Heimdal Security

Boosts Ransomware Protection with Heimdal

Danish Wholesale Trading Company, a Denmark-based wholesale trader of 350 employees, partnered with Heimdal Security in 2016 to strengthen its defenses against high-profile ransomware (WannaCry, Petya) and other encryption threats. The company deployed Heimdal Security’s Ransomware Encryption Protection module and additional Zero Trust protections because backups alone couldn’t stop live encryption attacks.

Heimdal Security’s suite detected a malicious test sample, automatically deleted dangerous files and prevented the ransomware from executing, stopping every simulated attack the customer ran; the CIO also highlights fast support responses (often within hours) and smooth ongoing protection. As a result, Heimdal Security delivered active, real-time prevention of encryption attempts and greater operational confidence across the company’s network.
