Sherry FitzGerald cuts security costs by 40% with Palo Alto Networks

Sherry FitzGerald, Ireland's largest property and financial services advisory group, faced significant challenges with its complex and expensive MPLS network. This outdated system created security gaps, hampered the productivity of its 450 agents, and threatened to disrupt critical property sales transactions. To address these issues, the company turned to Palo Alto Networks for a modern security solution.

By deploying the Palo Alto Networks AI-powered SASE platform, specifically Prisma Access and Cortex XDR managed through Strata Cloud Manager, Sherry FitzGerald consolidated its security stack. This solution provided seamless, secure connectivity for its hybrid workforce. The results were substantial, including an 80% reduction in mean time to detect and respond to threats, a 40% reduction in security costs, a 70% drop in helpdesk calls, and a gain of three FTEs' worth of productivity.
