Case Study: Ascot Group achieves better network performance and fewer service desk tickets with Palo Alto Networks

Ascot Group blocks 209k threats in 30 days with Palo Alto Networks

Ascot Group, a specialty insurance company operating globally, faced significant challenges with outdated and disparate security tools that hindered productivity, provided poor visibility, and slowed their merger and acquisition activity. They sought to improve their security posture and protect customer data during a digital transformation to Azure. To address this, they partnered with Palo Alto Networks and implemented a suite of products including Prisma Access, Prisma Cloud, and their Next-Generation Firewalls.

The solution from Palo Alto Networks provided a unified platform that delivered greater visibility, control, and consistent security across their hybrid environment. The results were substantial, including 209,000 threats blocked in 30 days, a reduction in service desk calls due to improved network performance, and the ability to deploy new office environments in hours instead of days, significantly accelerating their M&A integration.
