Case Study: Beaumanoir Group achieves stronger privileged access and POS security with Yubico YubiKey

Beaumanoir Group secures 3,000 stores with Yubico

The Beaumanoir Group, a major textile retailer in France, faced increasing cybersecurity risks from targeted phishing attacks and needed to secure privileged administrator access and vulnerable point-of-sale systems. Their initial mobile-based one-time passcode solution was not versatile or cost-effective for all users. To address this, they turned to Yubico and implemented the YubiKey hardware security key.

Yubico's solution provided phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication using the versatile, multi-protocol YubiKey. This allowed Beaumanoir to securely store certificates for privileged access to on-premise and cloud systems and add strong authentication to POS systems. The move to YubiKey proved more cost-effective than issuing work phones, and it closed security gaps while offering a portable, high-assurance root of trust for the company's expanding operations.
