Introduction
O.F. Mossberg & Sons sought to protect its brand and bottom line by strengthening its cybersecurity.
“From a business standpoint, any security breach would impact one of our departments, which basically shuts us down from manufacturing for our customers,” said Wes Beighley, Chief Information Officer at O.F. Mossberg & Sons. “Not only would that affect our bottom line, it would put a mark against the brand.”
The 101-year-old, Connecticut-based firearms manufacturer needed a dependable, trustworthy partner to strengthen its security systems and implement 24/7 monitoring.
Solution
Headquartered in Mossberg partnered with Versetal, which immediately set out to provide around-the-clock coverage, alerts, and proactive security monitoring.
“Now if we have an incident, we’re able to recover from it in minutes, if not seconds,” said Wes.
Having that coverage has provided peace of mind for leadership at O.F. Mossberg & Sons.
“We have 24/7 monitoring at any given time,” said Wes. “When an alert does come through, Versetal is able to take it, react to it, and give me a post-mortem report immediately—no matter what time of day it is. It helps me sleep better at night.”
“There have been no data or security breaches in
the two years since we implemented this program.”
The firearms manufacturer has experienced no security-related downtime since the partnership with Versetal began two years ago.
“There have been no data or security breaches for two years straight—ever since we implemented this program,” Wes said.
O.F. Mossberg & Sons is also pleased with the level of responsive customer support Versetal provides. I’ve worked with some other vendors in the past, and the difference is that Versetal is a lot leaner, meaner, and more agile,” said Wes. “I don’t feel like I’m in a queue for projects or
“I would highly recommend the Versetal team. They’re great working with mid-sized companies, agile and robust enough to grow with you.”
