Background: Forging New Partnerships for Essential Security

Genians recently formalized a partnership with Infodesign, a new technology provider in Bulgaria. Shortly after, Infodesign secured its first customer win. Before introducing any solutions to clients, the Infodesign team conducted thorough in-house testing of the Genian NAC platform. Impressed by its capabilities and ease of management, Infodesign confidently presented the solution to the Bulgarian market.

Their first successful engagement was with the sole producer of bioethanol in Bulgaria, a key player in the nation’s renewable energy sector dedicated to producing alternatives to gasoline.

Establishing Foundational Network Control for Critical Operations

The bioethanol producer needed to establish foundational security for its plant and corporate network. The primary goal was clear: gain immediate visibility into every connected device—from office PCs to systems on the plant floor—and implement basic access control. They required a straightforward solution that could be deployed quickly, without a lengthy and complex evaluation process or disruption to their critical production operations.

Solution: Trusted Recommendation, Rapid Deployment of Cloud NAC

Based on the strong recommendation and proven test results from their trusted partner, Infodesign, the bioethanol producer swiftly selected Genian Cloud-Managed NAC. The decision was made rapidly, without considering other NAC solutions, due to the platform’s demonstrated ease of installation and its ability to immediately deliver the essential functionalities they required.

They deployed the Genian NAC Cloud Professional edition. This initial phase focused on establishing a comprehensive device inventory and foundational control, laying the essential groundwork for a more advanced security posture. Genian’s cloud-managed approach ensured a zero-hardware footprint, aligning perfectly with the need for quick deployment and minimal disruption to their critical production environment.

Summary: Immediate Control, Future-Ready Security

The bioethanol producer successfully established a baseline of network security, gaining the essential visibility and control needed to protect their unique manufacturing environment. This first customer win marks a successful and rapid start for the Infodesign partnership, validating their proactive, test-first approach to client engagement.

A Phased Approach to Advanced Zero Trust

This deployment represents the crucial first step in a deliberate, phased security strategy. With foundational visibility and control now firmly in place, the company plans to upgrade to Genian’s ZTNA Enterprise edition in the first half of the coming year. This upgrade will allow them to implement more advanced Zero Trust security features, extending their robust security posture for the future.
