Operational Impact
Patrick Quinn, IT Manager at Thomaston, has been very pleased with Catbird’s performance through the years. He notes that they have more granular control to see what is going on across the network as well as the ability to make quick changes without relying on a vendor. | |
Quinn particularly appreciates Catbird TrustZones® which prevent unauthorized communication between virtualized servers, irrespective of location. TrustZones groups virtual machines according to a set of policies, then tracks the machines through mobility events while continuing to enforce the established policy. | |
Prior to installing Catbird, a virus at one of Thomaston’s branches took down teller lines and ATMs at all of their branches. The system was not restored until the next day. Catbird would have isolated the branch and it would not have spread to all other locations. It instantly detects and prevents such a problem. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Thomaston is now 98% virtualized with Catbird deployed across their data center. | |
Industry figures put a typical audit cost at a minimum $10,000, but an audit after a breach starts at ten times that amount. | |
