Customer Story — Manufacturing
Rockman Industries Ltd., part of the Hero Group, is a leading manufacturer of precision components serving India's automotive and industrial sectors. Its IT and network team needed a way to give vendors and internal staff access to plant and corporate systems without leaving standing VPN sessions open indefinitely.
“Whiteswan eliminated our VPN dependency and gave us complete visibility into vendor and internal access — before we asked for it, not after.”

Incharge – Network & Systems, Rockman Industries Ltd. / Hero Group
The Challenge
Like most manufacturers, Rockman's plant and corporate systems depended on equipment vendors and internal IT staff connecting in through always-on VPN sessions. Access was provisioned for the duration of a maintenance contract or IT role, but rarely revisited once granted — leaving the network team with broad connectivity and limited visibility into who was actually active on the network at any given time, and why.
The Solution
Whiteswan replaced Rockman's standing VPN model with just-in-time access decisions: vendors and internal staff request access for a specific task, it's granted for the window that task needs, and every decision is logged the moment it's made. The network and systems team now has a real-time picture of who is accessing what, without maintaining a permanent VPN footprint to do it.
