Case Study: Diana Holding Group achieves enhanced protection and visibility with Sophos

Food Industry Major Enhances Protection and Visibility with an Integrated Approach to Cybersecurity

Diana Holding Group, a Morocco-based food conglomerate with 40+ years in edible oils, wine, meat processing and nurseries and roughly 500–999 users, faced growing cyber risk as its workforce and IT footprint expanded. A small IT team was overwhelmed by legacy endpoint tools, limited visibility into network and cloud-hosted infrastructure, spam/phishing attacks and the need to meet ISO 27001 controls—so the company chose Sophos (including XG Firewall Full Guard, Intercept X Advanced with EDR for endpoints and servers, and Central Email Advanced) to build a more comprehensive, EDR-driven security posture.

Sophos implemented a synchronized stack—45 XG Firewalls, 830 Intercept X Advanced with EDR licenses, 79 server EDR licenses and 830 Central Email Advanced licenses—over a three-month deployment to deliver network DPI/SSL inspection, AI-driven endpoint detection and email protection. The result: improved real-time visibility and threat hunting, automated ransomware rollback and stronger Office 365 email defenses, demonstrable reductions in spam/phishing, lower RAM/disk/CPU consumption, faster IT response and the ability to confidently meet ISO27001 requirements; Diana Holding Group has already committed to expanding Sophos solutions further.
