Case Study: Agnico Eagle Mines Limited blocks ransomware and exploits with Malwarebytes Endpoint Security

Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. Strikes Gold With Malwarebytes

Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd., a Toronto‑based precious‑metals miner with operations in Canada, the U.S., Mexico, Finland and Sweden, was seeing advanced threats—exploits, ransomware and browsing‑related malware—bypass its Trend Micro antivirus. The IT teams needed a complementary, low‑impact security layer that could be deployed across remote, satellite‑connected sites without degrading PC performance.

They deployed Malwarebytes Endpoint Security (Anti‑Malware for Business, Anti‑Exploit, and the Management Console) plus the Malwarebytes Quick Start Service across about 3,500 endpoints and regional consoles. The solution immediately found and stopped ransomware, Trojans and other malware missed by the existing AV, blocked malicious sites, delivered consistent protection across North America, Central America and Europe, and provided deeper visibility for stronger policies—all with minimal user disruption and a small update footprint for remote sites.
