Online Retailer Is Sticking with WatchGuard for Security
Challenge
Diecutstickers.com has been crafting stunning custom vinyl stickers since 2002. Originally founded in the Pacific Northwest, Diecutstickers.com has been growing their business year after year. Artists, musicians and entrepreneurs are a few of the many audiences that the sticker company proudly serves.
Previously, Diecutstickers.com used simple all-in-one devices that provided little to no security. They did not have a dedicated security infrastructure in place and as they began to grow, it became apparent that a security solution was much needed. They needed a solution that scaled with their business and protected them from today’s emerging threats.
When Diecutstickers.com began to grow and expand their workforce to include remote users, the company searched for a service that offered layered security, including content filtering, anti-malware and anti-phishing capabilities. Ejay O’Donnell, vice president at diecutstickers.com, noted, “We chose WatchGuard because the solutions they provided were easy to manage, secure and robust without breaking the bank.”
Solution
What the company enjoyed most about WatchGuard was the full offering of network security features, including a VPN solution and multi-factor authentication. To gain full security benefits, Diecutstickers.com deployed the Firebox M270 appliance, complete with WatchGuard’s range of security services with Total Security Suite. Ejay commented, “Total Security Suite allowed us to have additional behavioral based protection provided by IntelligentAV, APT Blocker and Threat Detection and Response (TDR), as well as anti-phishing protection from DNSWatch, which has been beneficial for us.”
Diecutstickers.com also opted to include AuthPoint® licenses for multi-factor authentication. The company wanted to add an additional layer of protection to ensure all remote employees had secure access to the network. This also helped them add an additional layer of protection to restrict access to unauthorized users, especially those employees who work remote.
Results
In combination with its newly installed Firebox appliances and multi-factor authentication solution, Diecutstickers.com now has security services that scale with their business. Since deployment, the company has benefited from malware protection and increased protection using AuthPoint to further secure their mobile VPN users. Ejay concluded, “There was never any pressure to purchase and the sales process was easy. No doubt, we look forward to using WatchGuard as our business continues to grow.”
