Case Study: K3 Cloud Services achieves secure network segmentation with Hillstone CloudHive

K3 Cloud Services achieves secure segmentation across environments with Hillstone Networks

K3 Cloud Services, a UK-based managed service provider, faced the challenge of securing its shared virtual private cloud environments against lateral attacks. They needed a micro-segmentation solution to segregate customer and shared applications, control internal traffic, and meet stringent compliance requirements. To address this, they turned to Hillstone Networks and implemented their CloudHive product.

Hillstone Networks' CloudHive solution provided advanced micro-segmentation, deep visibility into east-west traffic, and robust security from Layers 2 through 7. The deployment was seamless, requiring no network changes, and the solution's scalability and VM mobility were key benefits. Hillstone's flexible licensing helped K3 achieve a low total cost of ownership and a quick return on investment. The result was a successfully segmented network that protected customer data and positioned K3 to meet the security needs of its growing customer base.
