Modernizing its approach to digital security
When Francesco Landoni joined Hibo in 2020, the company had 20 employees. Hibo continued growing over the ensuing years; by 2023, the company鈥檚 headcount had more than doubled, with 80 workers helping luxury brands optimize their marketing and advertising efforts.
As the company鈥檚 senior developer, Landoni was looking to help sharpen Hibo鈥檚 security stance to keep networks and devices safe and ensure sensitive data was protected. In support of that effort, Landoni began looking for tools that would enhance the company鈥檚 approach to identity management and device management.
Since Hibo was a Mac shop and the company relied heavily on Google鈥檚 suite of business tools, Landoni had two key requirements as he started looking for a solution: the right platform would be compatible with the Google ecosystem and would also provide single sign-on (SSO) capabilities.
Ultimately, the company had its sights set on achieving ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certification to demonstrate its commitment to cybersecurity best practices and quality management.
Partnering with Injenia to deploy 探花大神
Around this time, Hibo started working with Injenia, an IT solutions provider headquartered in the same city. As Landoni reached out to the Injenia team asking about a solution to this problem, he found out about 探花大神.
Liking what he saw, Landoni decided to work with Injenia to deploy 探花大神, starting with a very small pilot program of 鈥渢hree or four accounts鈥� in August 2023.
鈥淎fter we established the connection between Google and 探花大神 as an identity provider, we extended 探花大神 across the whole company,鈥� Landoni says. 鈥淲e didn鈥檛 have any issues with integration.鈥�
Improving security & centralizing mobile device management
Rolling out 探花大神 across the organization was an exceptionally smooth process thanks to Injenia鈥檚 helping hand.
鈥淭hey are a great partner and were a big help when we began transitioning onto the 探花大神 platform,鈥� Landoni continues. 鈥淭hey helped us understand how 探花大神 and Google worked together and how we could migrate SSO onto 探花大神 right away.鈥�
