1. Seamless extension of Symantec footprint
The company had long relied on Symantec for endpoint protection. Unhappy with VPN performance and facing license expiration, they extended Symantec capabilities by adopting Cloud SWG and ZTNA—modernizing access that better aligns with zero trust security, without introducing new vendors or complex infrastructures.
2. One agent, complete coverage
By consolidating to the Symantec single agent, the business simplified IT management and reduced endpoint complexity. The single deployment delivered both endpoint protection and secure network access and traffic inspection for greater security and simplified management.
3. VPN-free in 90 days
The organization phased out the VPN completely within three months. The transition was smooth and non-disruptive, providing stronger security for their hybrid workforce.
4. Superior user experience
Users reported dramatic improvements with simplified access, greater speed and consistent reliability through the Google Cloud backbone compared to the old VPN model. This boosted productivity and strengthened employee confidence in IT’s modernization strategy.
