About The Customer
INglass S.p.A. is a global developer and manufacturer of plastic injection and molding systems, as well as engineering and consultancy services for the design and production of advanced plastics products. The Italy-based company operates production plants in Europe, North America, and Asia, as well as 15 offices worldwide. With over 1,000 employees, including 29 IT staff, INglass is a significant player in the plastics industry, providing innovative solutions and services to a diverse range of clients. The company is headquartered in San Polo di Piave, Treviso, Italy, and is known for its commitment to quality and technological advancement.
The Challenge
In computer-aided design, advances in graphics rendering and modeling have demanded increasingly powerful computers. When a security solution at INglass, a plastics industry manufacturer, slowed down performance of workstations used by design engineers, complaints from users began to mount. The security software also generated frequent false positives, disrupting user productivity, and burdening the IT staff. In response, INglass considered cybersecurity solutions from Bitdefender, CrowdStrike, Cylance, Symantec, F-Secure, and Kaspersky. Bitdefender GravityZone stood out as the superior option for the company’s requirements.
The Solution
Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Security provides INglass with integrated endpoint detection and response (EDR), along with risk analytics across 1,500 endpoints. The INglass endpoints include Microsoft Windows workstations, VMware ESXi virtual servers, and VMware Horizon virtual desktops. The company’s applications running on endpoints protected by GravityZone include Autodesk, Microsoft Active Directory, Microsoft Office 365, SolidWorks, and several other custom solutions. INglass also uses Bitdefender Sandbox Analyzer to analyze suspicious files, detonate payloads, and report malicious intent. Bitdefender HyperDetect provides INglass with tunable machine learning and stealth attack detection technologies.
Operational Impact
  • GravityZone has protected INglass from breaches and provides powerful tools that enable learning from past incidents and strengthen the company’s security posture.
  • One incident underscored the value of GravityZone Ultra Security when a facility overseas was troubleshooting a faulty Internet connection with a vendor. The problem was resolved but the remote support session accidentally remained active due to a mistake by the local supplier. During the night, Bitdefender detected the open link and prevented any threat from getting into the infrastructure.
  • With better visibility and automation, GravityZone has contributed security-driven time and cost savings at INglass, including a 20 percent reduction in total cost of ownership.
  • Bitdefender has improved user trust because it does not disturb users with false positives or slower endpoint performance.
  • INglass also values Bitdefender’s commitment to ensuring a successful cybersecurity strategy.
Quantitative Benefit
  • Endpoint performance increased by 25 percent.
  • 20 percent reduction of total cost of ownership.
