Challenge
Quadrifoglio Group, a leading Italian manufacturer specializing in office furniture production and customized furnishing projects, faced significant cybersecurity challenges in safeguarding its production processes. The complexity of their network, which included diverse devices and systems, had led to a high number of false positives from their previous cybersecurity solution, and some critical vulnerabilities remained unaddressed. Quadrifoglio Group, in fact, had never before installed solutions that allowed network detection and well-structured analysis. Daniele Malutta, IT Manager of Quadrifoglio Group, explained, “Like any other company in the industrial sector, a production stoppage would be untenable for us.”
Solution
In search of a robust cybersecurity framework that could offer roundthe-clock protection and integrate seamlessly with existing systems, Quadrifoglio turned to Claroty xDome, complemented by CrowdStrike’s Falcon Complete for an integrated managed XDR protection.
Implementation and Technical Excellence
Claroty xDome, built on the AWS platform, provides a scalable, cloud-based industrial cybersecurity solution that enhances operational visibility and threat detection capabilities without the need for additional hardware or software and leverages AWS’s inherent scalability and security features, such as encrypted connections between on-premise networks and AWS, immediate access to new features and threat definitions, and automated updates. These features ensure a comprehensive and adaptive cybersecurity posture that aligns with modern demands for flexibility and scalability in security solutions. xDome integrates natively with CrowdStrike Falcon, providing a comprehensive view of cyber-physical systems and seamless integration between IT and operational technologies.
The implementation process included completely remapping the local and wireless network structures and updating the OT and PC operating systems. In addition, Quadrifoglio Group was finally able to implement a whole series of activities aimed at monitoring users connecting to the network from the outside for maintenance purposes.
“We change, we evolve, we transform: this has always been the philosophy behind our work. The integrated offering from Claroty and CrowdStrike has exceeded our expectations within a few months of implementation.”
Daniele Malutta, IT Manager of Quadrifoglio Group
Conclusion
The collaboration with Claroty has transformed Quadrifoglio Group’s approach to cybersecurity, aligning it with its philosophy of constant evolution and adaptation to technological advancements. This strategic initiative not only enhances their security posture but also ensures operational resilience, setting a new benchmark for cybersecurity in the industrial sector.
