Overview
When companies expand,
and their offices reach farther across the globe, they need to establish
systems that allow close collaboration while maintaining strict security.
Hyatt International, operator of 90 hotels across the globe, wanted
to set up a system that would allow each hotel to connect with the Local
Area Network (LAN) of the central office in the United States.
Key Challenges
To provide Virtual
Private Network (VPN) access to sensitive information as well as connectivity
with the Internet, Hyatt International needed to establish a separate
Internet connection for its business offices, as well as a secure connection
to the central LAN.
“VeriSign is
a company that truly knows security, a company that we can rely on.”

Solution
Hyatt International
turned to VeriSign for its Firewall Management Service, which included
the implementation and management of multiple firewalls, and its Managed
Virtual Private Network (VPN) service, linking Hyatt International’s
globally dispersed offices. Together, these services allowed Hyatt International
to provide carefully restricted access to the central office LAN as
well as secure access to the Internet.
Results
- The VeriSign network performed well, providing quick,
seamless connectivity between the Hyatt International offices and the
Internet.
- In addition, VeriSign provides constant monitoring
of network activity, and is able to anticipate network breaches before
they occur.
