Millions of people have benefitted from small loans from BRAC to invest in agriculture, trade and other small businesses, while others enjoy the increased security of protected savings to help plan for a more prosperous future. BRAC was looking for an IT security partner to replace its previous supplier who was unable to deal with the many virus attacks at local offices, often caused by running infected USB drives and CDs on PCs and laptops.
Challenges:
Systems regularly crashed, files were lost and hard drives damaged. Equipment had to be sent back to the IT team at Dhaka for complete reformatting and reinstallation of software, an extremely time consuming and expensive process.
Benefits:
BRAC selected Kaspersky Lab for its world class, multi-layered anti-malware protection, its systems and dispersed workforce, combined with application, device and web control, mobile security and mobile device management. The solution was also configured to work smoothly alongside BRAC’s customised microfinance systems and software
Testimony: “ With the quality of the Kaspersky Lab product, operations at our remote offices are much smoother and we are not wasting resources fixing damaged systems and equipment.” Paul Purification, Systems Engineer, BRAC Microfinance
