挑战

As a service provider, Magic Cloud has more than its own operations to worry about. The company also has hundreds of customers running their businesses from its cloud-based infrastructure. That demands reliable, high-performing, secure operations. But Magic Cloud’s previous security solution was creating performance and manageability problems. For example, when antivirus scans kicked in, application performance dropped. Quite often, their previous solution consumed too much CPU power when updating a client server. And more than once, antivirus would find false positives and remove critical files that shut down several virtual machines (VMs) at a time. In addition, the management server provided limited insight, forcing IT to spend hours of painstaking manual effort to recover a deleted file.

解决方案

To improve security performance and manageability, Magic Cloud replaced its previous security solution with Bitdefender GravityZone to protect both physical and virtual environments. Magic Cloud deployed GravityZone in its data center to protect hundreds of VMs supporting internal users and many more hundreds of cloud customers. The VMs protected by GravityZone run Citrix XenApp, XenDesktop, Microsoft Exchange, SQL Server, and Active Directory, among other applications for internal users. Magic Cloud also bundles GravityZone with customer offerings such as virtual desktops, computer-aided design (CAD) as a service, and the SafeMail email encryption service. Magic Cloud uses Bitdefender’s on-premise console to centralize deployment and management of security policies.

运营影响

With GravityZone, Magic Cloud dramatically improved manageability and performance of its endpoint security infrastructure. The company now distributes security updates across the entire environment much easier and faster. GravityZone also provides greater visibility and control of security incidents.
With Bitdefender, the organization investigates a detection in minutes and resolves the issue, whereas the team sometimes spent hours working toward the same goal with the previous solution.
With increased performance, the GravityZone solution enables Magic Cloud to run offline scanning more quickly without impacting VMs or applications running on them. In fact, nightly malware scans with GravityZone are 33 percent faster than with their previous solution.
GravityZone is also fast in detecting malware and other cyberthreats, providing IT with real-time alerts and intelligent defense techniques to stop exploits before they affect Magic Cloud or its customers. With its lean design, GravityZone delivers this high level of security with great efficiency, enabling Magic Cloud to run more VMs on each CPU. This helped Magic Cloud reduce infrastructure costs compared to their previous security solution.
As Magic Cloud grows, Haapavuori sees a smooth path to adding services and customers. “With GravityZone, we have high performance and easy management. That gives us confidence to expand our business, knowing that our cloud is more reliable and secure.”
