Jenny Tian, Group Executive of Information Technology at Stone & Chalk, was facing a significant challenge. As a critical supplier of infrastructure to hundreds of growing online businesses, her organisation needed to provide lightning-fast, resilient IT infrastructure and services while ensuring strong protection from cyberattacks.

One day, while attending a technology conference, Jenny met Adam from Peakhour. During their conversation, Adam explained how Peakhour had been successfully delivering website acceleration, high availability, and cybersecurity to AustCyber. When AustCyber and Stone & Chalk merged, he saw an opportunity for Stone & Chalk's public website and enterprise business web applications to benefit from Peakhour's CDN+ Service as well.

Intrigued, Jenny listened as Adam outlined the advantages of the service, including boosting Google search rankings and user engagement, reducing IT costs, and driving digital marketing outcomes. Adam also explained the cybersecurity functionality of CDN+, such as Web Application Firewall (WAF) & Virtual Patching, Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection, and Bot Management, which would protect not only the public websites and their underlying infrastructure but also the enterprise business web applications from data breaches and other online threats.

Jenny realised that the partnership between Peakhour and The Missing Link could deliver a winning combination of great products with expert pre- and post-sales service. Eager to seize the opportunity, she engaged The Missing Link to scope out and deploy the Peakhour solution for Stone & Chalk. The results were impressive, and Stone & Chalk soon began exploring other IT initiatives with The Missing Link.

Reflecting on the success of the Peakhour solution, Jenny couldn't help but share her satisfaction, saying, "Peakhour has dramatically boosted our web performance while reducing our exposure to critical emerging threats like Log4shell, and enabling us to feel confident that our company, our customers, and business partners are protected from cyberattacks." As Stone & Chalk continued to thrive, Jenny knew that the partnership with Adam and Peakhour played a crucial role in their ongoing success.

“Peakhour has dramatically boosted our web performance while reducing our exposure to critical emerging threats like Log4shell, and enabling us to feel confident that our company, our customers and business partners are protected from cyber attack.”
