Grant Thornton Extends Business Reach with Fiberlink's Policy-Based Remote Access Solution

A leading global business services firm deploys Fiberlink to serve 3,000 employees in 110 countries.

Challenge:
With the growing popularity of broadband technologies such as DSL and cable at home, as well as Wi-Fi at airports and hotels, Grant Thornton employees clamored for faster access and greater flexibility than what the company was offering with its dial-up service. In addition, the increasing number of employees accessing the network through transport technologies not supported by corporate IT not only raised security concerns, but also inflated access costs beyond the company's budget.

Solution:
Grant Thornton decided that Fiberlink could best meet the company's needs for global access by providing a full suite of transport options, as well as robust security through integrated, best-in-class technologies such as VPN, personal firewall, anti-virus, and centralized policy management.

Results:
Within 30 days of deployment, all 3,000 Grant Thornton employees were up and running on Fiberlink's solution. Since then, the company has achieved 100 percent compliance with its network access and protection policies. Its IT staff has saved hours every month via its CostView and ConnectView reporting systems. And by shortening its billing and payment cycles using Fiberlink's solution, the firm has improved its overall cash flow.
