Building MaterialsDelivered with Cato Networks SASE

One Platform. Full Visibility.

A family-owned building materials company with 400+ employees and 8 locations across two states needed a modern network, secure remote access, and one view of who was doing what. Here's how Loom Security, Cato Networks, and CINQUE delivered it, in a setup a lean IT team can run.

Growing business. Aging infrastructure.

Retail showrooms. Manufacturing plants. Sales offices. Eight sites in two states, all growing faster than the network underneath them.

Field staff couldn't count on a secure connection back to headquarters. Old site-to-site links slowed every division down. And the network and identity tools sat in separate silos, so nobody could see the whole picture.

One more thing. The IT team was small. Whatever came next had to be simple to run.

  • Remote access that field staff and remote workers couldn't rely on
  • Outdated site-to-site links slowing every division
  • Network and identity in silos, with no connected view
  • A lean IT team with no room for something hard to manage

The real cost of the status quo

  • Disconnected sites leave blind spots attackers can use
  • Unsecured remote workers become the easy way in
  • Siloed tools slow down detection and response
  • Aging infrastructure adds risk every year it stays
  • You can't protect what you can't see from one place

The fix had to cover the network and the people on it, without handing a small team another console to babysit.

Modern network first. Then one view across all of it.

Loom Security designed and deployed an integrated platform on Cato Networks' SASE architecture to modernize the network and remote access. Then Loom layered in CINQUE, so network and identity activity could finally be read together.

  1. Network modernization with Cato SASE

    Aging site-to-site links replaced with a modern software-defined network across all 8 locations.

  2. Secure remote access

    Consistent, identity-aware connectivity for the distributed workforce in both states.

  3. Identity posture through CINQUE personas

    Real user behavior analyzed to understand identity posture across the whole workforce.

  4. Correlated network and identity visibility

    CINQUE reads the new infrastructure and identity activity together, in one platform.

  5. Ongoing policy management

    CINQUE's persona data now shapes security posture and network policy company-wide.
