About The Customer
ADVNET SRL is a leading Italy-based systems integrator and value-added reseller specializing in advanced IT systems and cybersecurity. The company’s differentiators include a staff with advanced technological knowledge and skill sets combined with a strong commitment to exemplary client service. ADVNET resells a broad range of Bitdefender cybersecurity solutions, including GravityZone Ultra, a comprehensive endpoint protection, detection, and response (EDR) solution, and GravityZone Elite, an integrated endpoint protection, risk management, and attack forensics solution. In addition, ADVNET’s Bitdefender portfolio includes GravityZone Ultra Plus eXtended Detection and Response (XDR), an integrated solution that combines EDR and network traffic analytics.
The Challenge
When the European Union adopted the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), businesses needed to reevaluate and potentially update their IT environments and security posture. Otherwise, they could be facing stiff fines if they experienced privacy or data breaches. ADVNET, an information technology systems integrator and value-added reseller, paid close attention to GDPR and soon determined that its Sophos security solution was not up to the challenge of complying with the new data protection requirement. The company sought an alternative and evaluated Trend Micro and Bitdefender.
The Solution
ADVNET formed a partnership with Bitdefender to address the new GDPR requirements and improve their cybersecurity offerings. They resell a broad range of Bitdefender cybersecurity solutions, including GravityZone Ultra, GravityZone Elite, and GravityZone Ultra Plus XDR. These solutions provide comprehensive endpoint protection, detection, and response (EDR), risk management, attack forensics, and network traffic analytics. Since forming the partnership, ADVNET has installed Bitdefender at numerous customer locations to protect a total of 6,000 workstations. In addition to Bitdefender deployment services, ADVNET also provides customers with first-line customer support and engages Bitdefender technical support resources when needed. ADVNET also relies on Bitdefender to protect its internal infrastructure and endpoints.
Operational Impact
  • ADVNET credits the Bitdefender partnership with healthy growth and expanded presence in the cybersecurity market.
  • One opportunity pursued by Trend Micro and ADVNET led to the customer choosing ADVNET to install Bitdefender across 2,000 endpoints.
  • Technical support has been a positive experience for ADVNET, with Bitdefender’s customer support teams consistently providing fast, effective solutions.
  • In three years, there has not been a single cybersecurity breach at an ADVNET customer site.
  • ADVNET appreciates that the lightweight Bitdefender solutions scan all endpoints and network traffic without degrading system performance.
Quantitative Benefit
  • 30 percent growth of endpoint protection business.
  • 40 percent improvement in overall endpoint performance at customer sites.
