About

Customer’s requests

  • Get complete visibility into workforce and third-party vendor activities
  • Prevent privileged access misuse
  • Detect policy violations and security threats in real-time
  • Ensure regulatory compliance

The challenge

Max Stock Ltd. has a complex on-premises infrastructure with multiple terminal servers to support its retail operations. With many employees and third-party vendors frequently accessing critical systems, the company faced increasing challenges in securing its sensitive assets. 

Without employee monitoring software for retail, they couldn’t see what users were doing on endpoints, nor could they detect or respond to violations in real time. When suspicious activity occurred, investigations lacked transparency, making it difficult to assign responsibility for the incident. 

To ensure users’ adherence to policies, protect sensitive business data and systems against unauthorized access, prevent insider threats, protect retail data, and eliminate compliance gaps, Max Stock needed a retail cybersecurity solution capable of delivering granular access control, visibility, and real-time threat detection across all servers.

The results

Syteca empowered Max Stock to:

  • Enforce security and access control policies for employees and third-party users
  • Gain real-time visibility into user activity
  • Detect and respond to threats and policy violations
  • Investigate incidents with detailed audit trails
  • Establish adequate compliance management for retail chains to meet PCI DSS, ISO/IEC 27001, and other requirements

Outstanding experience — Syteca cybersecurity solution works as promised, support is excellent, and the improvements to our security operations have been very significant.
