Case Study: CIS Ltd achieves private customised cloud growth and wins more contracts with Sophos UTM (Sophos)

How Sophos UTM enabled CIS to deliver and grow its vision of private customised cloud environments

CIS Ltd., an Oxford-based specialist in private, custom virtualised cloud environments, needed a reliable virtual firewall when it committed fully to cloud services and found its previous security vendor unable to meet the challenge. CIS chose Sophos and deployed Sophos UTM as its integrated virtual firewall and centralised security solution.

Sophos implemented Sophos UTM plus dedicated account management, high-level training and fast technical support, allowing CIS to standardise security, simplify deployments and bundle multiple functions from a single console. With Sophos’ deal protection, sales and marketing support, CIS won larger contracts (including a recent 10-site deal), improved time-to-support and accelerated growth—contributing to the company’s expanded cloud business and increased revenues.
