The Problem
At the Toshiba branch in France, Jerome Jasmin, Director of the Information Department, and his staff of 12 were working hard to provide efficient Web protection to the branch’s 600 employees. They had two different solutions in place for Web security—a hardware appliance and a software product— but malware still seeped through. Moreover, 50 employees were using the latest generation of industry-leading Toshiba laptops to remotely connect to the network, and these mobile PCs were even less protected against web threats.
Using two different solutions cost extra time, money and resources and was eventually considered inefficient and ineffective. Toshiba headquarters required that Web security be improved and expanded to include inbound and outbound Web filtering for malware—so Jasmin began researching to find a better and more affordable solution.
“We were doing research on different products and we needed to find one specifically for Web filtering that would be affordable but still offer great security,” Jasmin says. “One of our technical specialists had heard good things about Webroot Web Security SaaS and we decided to try it out.”
