About The Customer

X by Orange is the branded trademark of Orange B2B Technology, a subsidiary of Orange Spain. Established to promote the growth of small and medium businesses, it uses the cloud to transform and digitize communication. X by Orange’s mission is to enable access to digital services via the cloud, providing the features SMBs need at a competitive price and without requiring long-term commitment. The company provides its SMB clients with cloud, mobile and endpoint security solutions. It is committed to providing advanced and easy-to-use services to its customers.

The Challenge

X by Orange, the B2B technology arm of Orange Spain, was faced with the challenge of making cloud-based security available to advanced service companies at an affordable price. The company aimed to automate security management and provide peace of mind to its clients. As it began developing two new products, X-Privacy and X-Security, X by Orange needed a security solution that would ensure the products were not only affordable, predictable, and easily operated, but would also protect their clients’ corporate data from known and unknown cyber threats without requiring hands-on management. The challenge was to find a solution that would provide a high level of security, be easy to use, and would not require a long-term commitment from their SMB clients.

The Solution

X by Orange turned to Check Point for a solution, implementing Check Point CloudGuard IaaS and Check Point Zone Alarm. CloudGuard protects businesses against Gen V cyberattacks on the cloud, using real-time sandboxing and cloud-based threat intelligence. ZoneAlarm provides X by Orange with anti-virus and advanced firewall protection, along with anti-phishing to block identify theft and threat emulation to prevent zero-day attacks. Check Point Next Generation Firewall and Threat Protection are now built into both X-Security and X-Privacy. This allows multiple sites to interconnect in a secure way, protecting corporate and financial data, even when accessed using mobile devices. X by Orange assessed Check Point against strict criteria, including the number of features and their level of sophistication.

Operational Impact

The implementation of Check Point solutions has resulted in a significant improvement in the security services offered by X by Orange. The company now offers cloud services that support SMEs every day. X-Security prevents IT threats and attacks from impacting client companies. Check Point CloudGuard for AWS enables X-Security to analyze and filter all outbound and inbound internet traffic across all sites. This guarantees that all communications between sites are encrypted, authenticated and protected through powerful cloud firewalls. X-Protection, developed using Check Point Zone Alarm, is a comprehensive security service that protects companies’ devices. It includes a protection module for PCs with anti-virus and antiransomware capabilities, and an advanced mobile protection module for iOS and Android devices. The Check Point solutions have strengthened their clients’ confidence, as all connectivity and activity is protected by the advanced Check Point solutions.
