Download Case StudyOverview
Horoz Logistics serves 600 locations across 109 countries with a range of logistics solutions. With its digital footprint increasing and needing a network that could help it expand into new regions, Horoz Logistics set out to increase data protection, simplify network management, and improve availability.
For these reasons, Horoz Logistics selected Fortinet Secure SD-WAN for converged WAN networking and security. The company also replaced its legacy LAN with Fortinet SD-Branch, which integrates FortiSwitch Ethernet switches and FortiAP access points to extend control and visibility to branch locations. Fortinet SD-Branch is part of Horoz Logistics’ broader Fortinet Security Fabric, which provides comprehensive real-time cybersecurity protection from users to applications. With Fortinet, the company can identify and fix problems before they are noticed, improving employee and customer experiences, and enabling better business outcomes.
“By replacing our existing LAN switches and wireless access points with the FortiSwitch and FortiAP products, we extended control and visibility right into the branch, with all access now protected through a common, unified security policy.”
