Case Study: Chemist Warehouse achieves secure, PCI‑compliant nationwide growth with Kaspersky Lab

Chemist Warehouse - Customer Case Study

Chemist Warehouse, one of Australia’s largest pharmacy groups with rapid growth from about 100 to 400+ stores and five online pharmacies, faced a fragmented IT estate after multiple acquisitions that caused virus attacks, downtime and security risks to confidential medical records and payment data. Seeking a partner to secure customer data and meet PCI requirements, Chemist Warehouse selected Kaspersky Lab and deployed Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business Advanced.

Kaspersky Lab implemented a multi‑layered platform across the estate—about 4,500 endpoint licences plus 400 licences for virtual servers—managed centrally for real‑time visibility and easy, repeatable roll‑outs. The solution eliminated significant downtime over five years, supported online transactions that doubled year‑on‑year, enabled the opening of roughly 40 new stores per year, and delivered the enterprise‑wide protection and compliance confidence Chemist Warehouse needed.
