Wyndham Hotels and Resorts was impressed with the work of Gigamon and its products. With security being one of the top priorities for the global company, challenges such as safeguarding properties, workers, and information are vital to the functionality of Wyndham. Gigamon exceeded expectations with network and security advances that benefited Wyndham’s systems and team.
Based in the United States, Wyndham Hotel and Resorts, Inc is one of the world’s largest hotel chains, with 20 hotel brands in over 9,000 locations. With beachfront resorts and highway hotels, Wyndham’s 22 iconic brands offer unique travel experiences to travellers. security
Protecting Wyndham Hotels’ point-of-sale systems reservations, corporate data, and personal identity information is essential. With gaps in their Endpoint Detection and Response systems, lack of visibility across technical storage devices, and archaic security tools, Wyndham turned to Gigamon’s ThreatINSIGHT Guided-SaaS NDR and GigaVUE Cloud Suite for a solution. To provide visibility across every device on their core and cloud networks, enhance their security, and update their Threat and Response Guidance, Wyndham eagerly began work with Gigamon.
“Gigamon ThreatINSIGHT exceeded our requirements of providing robust visibility to activity on our network, delivering high-fidelity detections, and removing distractions from our team,” said Michael Francess, Senior Manager, Cyber Security Advanced Threat and Response at Wyndham Hotels.
Included in the Gigamon ThreatINSIGHT was cloud-native architecture, extension of security and compliance to AWS deployments, enhanced network visibility, wide-ranging detection techniques, robust triage and investigation tools, and advanced threat-hunting capabilities.
The new implementations have allowed Wyndham’s SOC and IR teams to focus on threat management rather than tool maintenance while providing L2-L7 network visibility to every device on their core and cloud networks. Threat identification intelligence and behaviour analysis machines have proved successful with a refreshed observability across the property and worker networks.
Improvements in management and maintenance have reduced labour significantly for the Wyndham team, and threat detection across networks accurately detects attacker behaviour. The ThreatINSIGHT delivery model benefits customers when incident reports and health checks are quicker to assist.
Wyndham’s confidence in Giagmon’s network expertise has enabled a significant advancement in their technology, allowing for technical seamlessness in performance.
