Browser Security Case Study: Toyota Tanzania
Overview
Toyota Tanzania, a prominent player in the automotive industry, has a rich history rooted in East Africa. With a legacy dating back to 1825, the Karimjee family introduced the Toyota brand, which has since become synonymous with quality, reliability, and innovation. Operating in vehicle importation, spare parts distribution, and after-sales services, Toyota Tanzania is committed to the global after-sales service standard, known as “Kodawari.”
In an era of digital transformation, the automotive industry faces evolving cybersecurity challenges. Connected vehicles, intricate in-car systems, and the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices increase the attack surface. Abdulaziz Raudha, IT Manager at Toyota Tanzania, sheds light on the complexities: “People are browsing on various devices; how do you protect them all? You can secure your computers on your network perimeter, but how do you manage remote endpoint devices?
Challenge
Despite conventional security measures, Toyota Tanzania encountered a critical challenge: the vulnerability of saved credentials. Raudha recounts an incident where hackers targeted the CEO and directors, exploiting saved credentials to gain unauthorized access, emphasizing that even seemingly secure networks are susceptible.
Solution
Enter Conceal, a transformative solution described by Raudha as an “armor for most things we are not aware of. “Conceal’s Zero Trust approach and AI-driven browser security offered a game-changing paradigm in cybersecurity. Raudha highlights the significance: “As we move with technology and IoT takes place, humans have weaknesses. You can’t rely 100% on humans. Conceal spots small things that we might not pick up.”
The Result of Implementing Browser Security
Conceal’s implementation proved instrumental in bolstering Toyota Tanzania’s cybersecurity posture. Raudha praises the solution’s seamlessness, reporting capabilities, and intelligence: “It actually makes my life so much easier. AI is a game-changer technology. You can relax at home knowing you are secure.” The isolation of users on sites and the proactive identification of potential threats showcased Conceal’s effectiveness.
