The Faricy Boys car dealership has been serving Colorado for more than 75 years. With the company’s continued growth, Vice President Paul Faricy had become increasingly uneasy about cyber security protection. After viewing a podcast about Field Effect, a global cyber security company focused on simplifying cyber security for small and mid-size businesses (SMBs), Paul put its Covalence® threat monitoring, detection, and response platform in place. Nearly one year later, he is still impressed by Covalence’s performance.
After deploying Field Effect’s Covalence® MDR platform last year, Paul has continued to experience benefits. According to Paul, Covalence’s Actions, Recommendations, and Observations (AROs) threat alerting and reporting improved his security by at least 75% in the first 30 days.
“Through the AROs, we are managing priorities and have elevated our defense,” he says. As just one example of AROs in action, Covalence prevented a phishing attack several months ago on Paul’s network that could have led to a significant data breach. “We got in touch with the Field Effect team and within five minutes, we had a full analysis of what happened and received support. It couldn’t have gone any better for us in terms of notification and response.”
