“The Phishing Training was very good. It was very good. Yeah. We had, we had, one campaign, I think you call it that we had a very poor result on. I think 50% of our people, opened and looked at a phishing email. We were very, shocked because there wasn’t a particularly important one. But it was very good. It gives us an idea of how, they’re coping with unsolicited emails and phishing.”
“One of the reasons why we were still with you, other than the fact that your product does what it says is that your behind-the-scenes team is very good. They respond to queries quickly and if they don’t know the answer, they get on to somebody who does and come back to us. I feel that they’re very knowledgeable and they know what they’re doing. So we’re quite happy with that.”
“I’m very, very happy with everything that the guys at Topsec do for us. We’re constantly impressed, with the level of service, and the products. We’re more than happy, to stay with you and certainly would have no hesitation in recommending you to somebody else.”

Ireland’s leading snack food manufacturer brings Topsec Cloud Solution aboard
Tayto Snacks needed assistance as they were receiving a large volume of spam emails in their inboxes. A lot of the mails were big and contained malicious content. They were then hit by a virus attack and Topsec helped navigate them through the same. They were unaware of the exposure they had previously and needed a solution to help address these exposures.
Topsec encouraged Tayto Snacks to implement Topsec Managed Email Security as their primary mode of protection against spam emails and further ransomware attacks. They then rolled other services like Blended Threats (URL Scanner), Archiving and end point security all as a managed service to increase security and reduce queries to support.
By installing Topsec products, the number of spam emails getting through to the end user significantly reduced. Because of URL Scanner, all the links in the emails were vetted and all malicious websites and senders were blocked. This resulted in less phishing emails getting through and a reduced load on support desk.
Tayto Snacks, founded in 1983, is Ireland’s premier maker and distributor of quality snack food. They were having problems with the volume of spam emails they were receiving back in 2011. These emails featured a range of malicious and hazardous information that was destructive to end users as well as the organization as a whole. During this period, they were also subjected to a malware assault, necessitating the need of specialist skills and assistance; this is when Topsec Cloud Solutions stepped in and saved the day. They contributed to the crisis’s stabilization and raised awareness of the need of cyber security. Tayto Snacks has since integrated a comprehensive range of Topsec Cloud solutions services.
“I suppose historically, we originally had some products from Topsec. But then we got hit by a virus, and Topsec helped us get through it. And we installed several other products by Topsec which they recommended for us.We thought we were fine, but we didn’t realize that we had exposure, and then we got exposed and had to address those exposures.”
Following the malware assault, Topsec advised a list of services that Tayto Snacks employed to protect themselves from future attacks. Email security, Endpoint Security, and Blended Threats were among them. Tayto Snacks would monitor the number of emails they received daily using email security. They build up rules based on employees, as well as reviewed quarantined emails. They were no longer exposed to risky links and URLs with Blended threats since they were vetted by Topsec before reaching inboxes. The endpoint security functioned as an antivirus remedy, preventing subsequent attacks. These services aided Tayto Snacks in making cyber security a primary priority.
Tayto Snacks felt more secure as an organization after implementing Topsec Cloud Solutions services. They were well-prepared and safeguarded against malware and fraud emails. It gave them more control over the emails that came into the organization. They could go through them and block users who were harmful. They were able to quantify and examine the detained emails. The platform and services were simple to roll out to users, and the onboarding process was simple. The fees for using the services were likewise relatively low. They now had a professional service with access to qualified technicians 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
“We’ve never had an issue with anything, whenever we have logged an issue. It has always been sorted out by the help desk. So, the Help Desk has been incredibly supportiveof any queries that we have raised. They just do their work in the background; you do not notice it on the surface,but it stops an awful lot of problems from happening. So,I amaware of our reliance on them.”
Topsec Cloud Solutions proves to be a trusted partner for St. Michael’s Hospital
St Michael’s Hospital was looking for a low-cost solution to minimize the amount of spam and promotional emails they were receiving. They also desired the ability to establish, modify, or remove rules depending on senders or recipients. A real-time service that may release or ban specific domains and/or individual email addresses.
St Michael’s Hospital received managed services from Topsec Cloud Solutions, including Topsec Managed Email Security and Endpoint Antivirus. These remedies were suggested in response to the issue of excessive spam and promotional communications reaching employee inboxes.
St Michael’s reported a considerable drop in the amount of spam and promotional emails that got through after adopting the remedies advised by Topsec. They may establish adjustable rules and monitor individual inboxes and spam email accounts. They had access to Topsec’s technical team 24 hours a day, seven days a week to handle any issues or review the quarantined emails.
St. Michael’s Hospital is a general acute hospital that provides a wide range of specialized healthcare services to the people of South Dublin and Wicklow. Pathological and radiological services, as well as medical and surgical care, are available, as are outpatient clinics and services such as cardiac rehabilitation, diabetes treatment, heart failure therapy, and pulmonary rehabilitation. St Michael’s required an email security solution since their employees were receiving a huge amount of spam emails and promotional messages in their inboxes. Being in the healthcare business and working at a hospital rendered them more vulnerable to ransomware and virus attacks.They wanted to protect the organization with a cost-effective solution that would provide them the flexibility they requireddaily. The hospital’s prior solution did not meet the hospital’s demand for cost-effectiveness and flexibility, which Topsec Cloud Solutions achieved.
“Before we had IronPort in place, and the main reasonto let them go was that it was notcost-effective, and it was not providing as much flexibility and management to the spam solution. So,that was the main reasonwe switched over.”
When St Michaels deployed Topsec’s Email security solution, they had access to a dashboard that provided them withclear knowledge of what was going on in the background. They had complete insight into the number of emails received each day, the number of emails quarantined, the number of spam emails, and they could monitor and ban particular email addresses and domains. This gave the hospital a clear picture of the ins and outs of their email activities on a daily basis. They also had access to top-tier technicians who could answer any question at any time.Because of the attack on the healthcare business, Topsec Cloud Solutions advised the hospital to install an endpoint antivirus solution that would warn the system and quarantine any virus or ransomware attempting to access or harm the system. The hospital sought a versatile and cost-effective solution that would meet all their requirements and solve all the requests and questions that might occur from time to time.
“I knew historically that Topsec provides services for quite a lot of companies and even if I’m not wrong the HSE. So that to me kind of proved that Topsec is at the top.”
“Topsec Cloud Solutions best part is its flexibility. It’s the monitoring tools, and the tool’s ability to see what’s going onin the network in real-time and,the ability to tighten or loosen security. It’s a flexible platform, especially with the advance of the new platform. For us to be able to release or block certain domains or a single email address means a lot because you can choose what you want to do with your network.The cost is always a big part of the decision-making process. So, we mustget value for our money. And I think for what we are paying the value is absolutely amazing.”
The benefit of implementing Topsec’s solutions was that email attacks were no longer a serious concern to the hospital because all unknown and suspicious emails were stopped or quarantined before landing and reaching an employee or any mailbox in the facility. With Topsec Cloud Solutions deployed, the hospital felt more safe, secure, and protected. They were aware that Topsec would always assist them, regardless of the hour or nature of the inquiry. Other hospitals and St Michaels parent group were also able to incorporate the services Topsec supplied due to the flexibility afforded by Topsec.
“We bought the endpointantivirus, which was recommended by Topsec, which is very good too. In the recent cyberattack, the organization made us change it to another provider, to another antivirus solution. But to be honest, that didn’t work for us at all. And it’s offered much less flexibility and much less, features. But with Topsec you nearly have two years or three years of endpoint protection for the price of two years, which was great saving and that was offered from Topsec. So overall, as I said, the experience is very good, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Topsec to anyone. And after we moved to Topsecconsequently, the St Vincent’s University Hospital, which is our parent hospital moved to Topsec, they recognized the advantages and moved their spam filtering to Topsec as well.”

Because of the nature of the company, they needed an anti-spam solution to block and prevent harmful emails and links from reaching end customers. They lacked an email security system capable of dealing with ransomware or spam emails. This posed a significant difficulty in today’s environment when ransomware and phishing assaults are on the rise. They also necessitated the transition to a cloud-based platform.
“The main driver was to move the filtering to the off networks and move it to the cloud so that we wouldn’t have to scan malicious emails once it’s gotten into our email system on then scan. Our intention was to pre scan so that we are on the accepting clean mail into our mail service.”
When Coillte required a cloud-based software for their business. Topsecprovided a solution in the form of managed email security.

It is an additional layer of assurance to our end-user base. We also use the Phishing training awareness technology from Topsec which has been a massive success in the last 18 months in terms of raising the whole profile of Phishing and email security in general.”
There was a considerable reduction in the amount of spam and harmful emails reaching the end-user after adopting the email security system. The cloud-based technology-enabled rules to be tailored to each unique user.
