Mexican Automotive Parts Wholesaler Converges Network and Security Infrastructure with the Fortinet Platform
Download Case Study
Overview
Over the past 40 years, Grupo Morsa de México has grown to become one of the largest automotive parts wholesalers in Mexico. Today, it conducts almost all its sales over the internet. Fulfilling nearly 7,000 daily online orders from 19 distribution centers, it made sense for Grupo Morsa to take a hybrid mesh firewall approach to its network security.
By unifying firewall security and management, the company’s lean IT staff can orchestrate nearly 300 cybersecurity devices, diverse communications networks, and more than 1,200 endpoints. And as it grows, Grupo Morsa is focused on staying one step ahead of cyber threats, with real-time zero-day protection, zero-trust network access, and other solutions from the Fortinet Security Fabric.
“Fortinet’s comprehensive solution has helped us reduce the need to monitor and manage multiple security systems individually. We have an entire view of the company’s security infrastructure, simplifying administration and making it easier to detect and respond to potential threats.”
– Jonathan Soto, IT Infrastructure Coordinator, Grupo Morsa de México
