Case Study: Plasser India achieves robust 24/7 threat protection and regulatory compliance with Sophos MDR and security solutions

Plasser Builds Robust Security Framework Underpinned by Sophos MDR

Plasser India, a leading manufacturer of high-performance train track maintenance machines with a 50-year history and 750+ users, faced growing cybersecurity challenges including complying with standards like ISO 27001 and NIST SP 800-171, protecting sensitive R&D, financial and customer data, and ensuring 24x7 threat monitoring and rapid, automated response. To avoid a fragmented multi-vendor approach and extend its security team cost-effectively, Plasser India turned to Sophos and its managed detection and response offering alongside a consolidated product stack.

Plasser implemented Sophos solutions—including XGS Firewalls, Sophos MDR Complete for Endpoints and Servers, Sophos NDR, Sophos Wireless APX, SD-RED, and Sophos Central—supported by Sophos professional services and TAM. Sophos MDR provides 24x7 proactive threat hunting backed by six SOCs, delivering faster detection and remediation, unified visibility and access control, reduced risk of operational disruption and regulatory penalties, and measurable security ROI for Plasser India.
