Case Study: Large Insurance Company achieves scalable PKI security and rapid site rollout with VMware SD‑WAN

Large insurance company solves long-standing security problem using Cloud-Delivered SD-WAN

A large insurance company with tens of thousands of sites and many thousands of agents faced persistent challenges deploying new locations and managing secure connectivity. A year-long attempt to integrate a PKI with their Microsoft CA proved too complex, so they reverted to less-secure pre-shared keys that could not scale or meet their security requirements.

The company built a private, on‑prem SD‑WAN cloud using VMware SD‑WAN by VeloCloud, leveraging zero‑touch site activation, a centralized orchestrator for business policies, and a built‑in PKI with automated key rotation. The result was stronger, scalable security, simplified VPN and certificate management, faster new‑site activation, centralized policy distribution across thousands of sites, and ready support for future cloud applications.
