Case Study: WMF Group achieves secure, scalable IAM for its CoffeeConnect IoT platform with Thales OneWelcome

WMF's path to success with its CoffeeConnect proposition

WMF Group, a global producer of professional coffee machines, needed a future‑proof SaaS identity and access management solution for its CoffeeConnect IoT platform. WMF Group required end-to-end data protection, advanced rights management, Single Sign‑On and full API readiness (Registration, Workload and Password‑Reset APIs), plus European data residency and the ability to support very large scale device deployments. They selected Thales OneWelcome to meet these requirements.

Thales OneWelcome implemented its Identity Platform as a development partner, completing deployment and connectivity in three months with one additional month for integration testing and a successful go‑live in February 2018. The solution delivered a secure, EU‑compliant IAM foundation that powers CoffeeConnect, improves machine uptime and centralizes management and analytics — supporting 40,000 devices per identity, 250,000 business customers across 40 countries and a 100% cloud strategy.
