Case Study: Ober Scharrer Group achieves secure, seamless email and safe file exchange with Hornetsecurity

Ober Scharrer Group - Customer Case Study

Ober Scharrer Group, a leading German ophthalmology provider with more than 100 locations and about 1,800 employees, faced rising cyberthreats (notably the 2019 Emotet wave), heavy clinical workloads and limited time for system updates. To avoid blocking legitimate communications while protecting patient and operational data, the organization turned to Hornetsecurity and its email security offerings—Spam and Malware Protection and Advanced Threat Protection.

Hornetsecurity implemented its Spam and Malware Protection (99.9% spam detection) and Advanced Threat Protection (99.99% malware detection) with deep-analytic and forensic attachment scanning plus an intuitive control panel for fast administration. As a result, Ober Scharrer Group immediately lifted strict external-email restrictions, resumed secure exchange of executable files, and completed migration in just a few days—providing measurable detection performance and a stronger foundation for secure digital operations.
