Designing custom, license-free security solutions using open source technologies to deliver scalable, future-ready protection without the high recurring costs.
Context
Hornblower was relying on proprietary security solutions with high licensing costs, which limited scalability and flexibility.
The challenge was to replace these tools with a secure, cost-effective alternative that could be customized to evolving operational needs while maintaining enterprise-grade protection.
Approach
We implemented a security architecture based on open source technologies, combining our technical expertise with tools like Wazuh and OpenSearch to create a custom-built, fully owned solution.
This eliminated recurring licensing fees and ensured the system could adapt and scale as operational demands changed.
Results
- Removal of recurring licensing costs.
- Customized, enterprise-grade security tailored to Hornblower’s operations.
- Flexible, future-proof architecture ready to evolve with the business.
