Challenges

Traditional endpoints are at high risk from loss or theft and are difficult to patch.

Once a threat has pierced the perimeter it is hard to mitigate damage.

Customer data is critical: a breach could carry large fines and and compromise brand loyalty.

Solution

Shutterfly developed a platform delivering device-agnostic, world-class memory management service connected to the smartest personalized e-commerce solutions.

As part of its SDDC strategy to support its mission, Shutterfly is leveraging VMware NSX to provide a secure infrastructure to automate and protect all customer and partner data, as well as empower its developers.

Outcome

Secured customer data.
