About The Customer
Hilson Moran is a multidisciplinary sustainable engineering consultancy with over 250 staff members. The company operates in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the Middle East, focusing on planning, designing, and managing significant commercial real estate assets. Known for its work on iconic structures like the 'Gherkin' and the 'Walkie Talkie' in London, as well as the 2012 Olympics Village, Hilson Moran is committed to delivering high-quality engineering solutions. The company places a strong emphasis on integrating technology and security to support its business objectives and client projects. With a keen focus on sustainability, Hilson Moran aims to provide innovative and efficient engineering services across its regions of operation.
The Challenge
Hilson Moran, a multidisciplinary sustainable engineering consultancy, faced the challenge of protecting its business against advanced malware and ransomware threats. With iconic projects like the 'Gherkin' and the 'Walkie Talkie' in London, the company needed to ensure that its IT infrastructure supported its business objectives and client projects without disruption. The proliferation of ransomware attacks across Europe heightened the urgency to fortify defenses. The IT team sought a solution that would integrate seamlessly with existing security infrastructure, avoid high memory or CPU usage, and offer off-premises management capabilities as they considered moving systems to the cloud.
The Solution
Hilson Moran selected Malwarebytes Endpoint Security to enhance its cybersecurity measures. The IT team conducted rigorous testing of various products, evaluating them against over 200 pieces of malware. Malwarebytes was chosen for its ability to integrate with existing security systems without consuming excessive resources. The deployment was carried out enterprise-wide through the Management Console, ensuring that all new systems included Malwarebytes in their image builds. The solution provided peace of mind by running transparently in the background, protecting systems without disrupting users. The IT team managed the deployment in stages, completing it across all locations in five days. Remote users received the software upon returning to the office. The team also received immediate email alerts for any suspicious activity, allowing for quick threat management. Hilson Moran is considering implementing Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection for its cloud interface, which would offer continuous monitoring of end-user devices, including remote laptops.
Operational Impact
  • Hilson Moran successfully stopped ransomware incidents and prevented malware-related business disruptions.
  • The company achieved quick value with an additional layer of protection across two continents.
  • Deployment was simplified, and management became 'hands-off,' allowing the IT team to focus on other tasks.
  • Ransomware and malware protection was achieved without affecting user experience, as Malwarebytes ran transparently in the background.
Quantitative Benefit
  • Deployment completed across all locations in five days.
