Case Study: Rhondda Housing Association achieves stronger security and GDPR readiness with SonicWall

SonicWall helps Rhondda Housing Association expand its services in the Valleys

Rhondda Housing Association, a UK social landlord managing over 1,700 homes with 64 staff, faced rapid growth, rising cyber threats and the need to prepare for GDPR. To address these challenges it upgraded its security with SonicWall, deploying a pair of SonicWall NSA 3600 firewalls in high‑availability mode plus SonicWall Advanced Gateway Security Suite (AGSS) and SonicWall Analyzer reporting software.

SonicWall’s solution delivered deep‑packet inspection, sandboxing and real‑time SSL inspection while adding bandwidth management, application control and detailed reporting. The upgrade was completed with no business interruption, improved broadband performance and higher availability, greater visibility and monitoring of user activity, stronger protection against ransomware/zero‑day threats, and reporting to help meet GDPR requirements—results that SonicWall and RHA say have exceeded expectations and given the IT team real peace of mind.
