Hermes Logistik replaces it’s hardware to PRIMERGY RX servers, as well as a NetAPP storage system which has provided security features to protect themselves from cyberattacks

When replacing its hardware, Hermes Logistik also protected itself against ransomware with CryptoSpyke – at the proactive suggestion of Fujitsu.

Customer

Since it entered the market in 2007, Vienna-based Hermes Logistik GmbH & Co KG has become one of the most important parcel service providers in Austria. Thanks to its close partnership with the Austrian Postal Service, Hermes’ shipping service is currently responsible for almost all parcel shipments from, within and to Austria. The company ships parcels for both private and corporate customers.

Challenge

Hermes Logistik required new Fujitsu servers and NetApp storage hardware. As part of its quote, Fujitsu recommended that the customer consider additional malware protection certified for NetApp – and met with a positive response.

Solution

The solution includes two new FUJITSU PRIMERGY RX2530 servers and two RX1330 servers, as well as a NetApp AFF8040 all-flash storage array and a NetApp FAS2540 hybrid flash storage system. At Fujitsu’s recommendation, Hermes has also opted for the CryptoSpike solution from ProLion to protect against ransomware.

Benefit

• Holistic customer consulting that thinks outside the “hardware box”and strong encryption of the biometric data
• Improved security, thanks to new malware protection on the storage level
• Support and maintenance for Fujitsu and NetApp from a single source
• Security features integrated in PRIMERGY servers also protect hardware interfaces, BIOS and firmware against cyberattacks
