Client story Sun Branding Case Study
By Insight UK / 13 Aug 2019 / Topics: As a service Storage
Sun Branding Solutions has a 100-year heritage in the design and creation of packaging. Innovation lies at the heart of Sun Branding’s vision, which launched the first ever digital artwork studio in 1984. To continue its transformation confidently, Sun Branding needed IT security to protect its business.
The Challenge
Sun Branding Solutions delivers a unique end-to-end service to its clients, which includes designing packaging for big-name brands and retailers.
But for businesses in the creative sector, the digital security risk is very high, and many companies fall victim to hacking when their systems are not adequately protected. Hiring security staff to provide 24/7 protection was too costly to be a viable option for the organisation.
Many of Sun Branding’s clients require their suppliers to have security accreditations such as ISO 27001 to demonstrate that their intellectual property is protected. If Sun Branding were unable to maintain these accreditations, they would risk losing business.
In a competitive industry such as packaging design, IT resilience and workplace efficiency are key to sustainable performance. Sun Branding needs the peace of mind that its information and data remains secure in order for the team to focus energy on the design innovation.
To continue to drive the business forward, reduce its operational costs and respond to an evolving marketplace, Sun Branding needed a watertight IT security solution.
The Solution
Sun Branding Solutions worked closely with Insight to build an IT security solution that would protect its digital artwork and business critical data.
Having a strong working relationship with Sun Branding enabled Insight to design a solution that adds genuine value by allowing the business to work more efficiently and gain a competitive edge.
To provide Sun Branding with the security it needs, Insight implemented MSS, a hosted security management solution. The solution provides proactive security monitoring, and real-time analytics on Sun Branding’s network activity.
A key feature for Sun Branding is the advanced threat detection which tracks all logs across the network for attacks. If a breach should occur, the system notifies the organisation and provides guidance on how to address the attack.
As James Lee explains: “The solution monitors all our endpoints, 24/7, to ensure we aren’t being hacked from the outside world. And by alerting us instantly, we can act upon an attack before the damage is done.”
