Case Study: 4Front Credit Union achieves 24x7 data protection and saves 500 IT hours a year with Secureworks Managed IPS

4Front Credit Union - Customer Case Study

4Front Credit Union, a 40,000‑member financial institution with six branches, needed to harden its networks and prove PCI and GLBA compliance while operating with a small IT staff. To address this, the credit union turned to Dell SecureWorks and its Managed IPS offering, seeking a turnkey IDS/IPS solution that could be quickly deployed across locations.

Dell SecureWorks installed Managed IPS appliances at each branch and provided 24x7 monitoring and response via its global Security Operations Centers, handling device administration, tuning and alerts. As a result, 4Front achieved streamlined regulatory compliance, real‑time threat detection and notification, and saved roughly 500 IT hours per year by effectively making Dell SecureWorks an extension of its team.
