Have Questions? Want to see Valtix in action?
Payments company transforms cloud incident response efficiency and service levels through network-based detection and prevention with the Valtix Multi-Cloud Security Platform. Felix Chu, IT Manager of BBPOS, is responsible for managing cloud infrastructure and cyber security for the newly acquired payments technology manufacturer. As part of the acquisition process, Felix wanted to focus on improved visibility into activity and detection of threats in their multi-account AWS environment. BBPOS was already 95% cloud, so they knew they needed a cloud-first approach to security.
“We realized that Valtix defines what cloud security should be. It’s an extremely robust solution, that is easy to deploy, and supports a variety of use cases.”
The project focused on adding additional defenses to the perimeter of two of their primary public-facing cloud applications – The Terminal Management System (TMS) and Developer Site. TMS is used by their customers to manage all mPOS terminals and enable administrative tasks such as OTA firmware updates. The Developer Site is a system for customers to manage the development work such as downloading SDKs, getting the latest development documents, etc. In researching solutions and designing an improved cloud security architecture, Felix engaged with their partner IUWorld – an experienced cybersecurity consulting firm.
