Oil and gas company implements SASE to energize IT resiliency, connection speed and network security
“Ever since bringing on Cato and Windstream Enterprise, we’ve had a marked improvement in our networks”
Matthew Bennett, Senior Manager, Technology Infrastructure and Cybersecurity

Ranger Energy Services had a legacy VPN with high latency, as it required routing through another vendor’s data center. The IT team received a huge number of tickets related to network issues. Ranger Energy Services started by replacing its legacy VPN with the Cato SASE Cloud Platform and the Cato Client offered by Windstream Enterprise Software. With Cato, a single zero-trust policy guides user access regardless if the user is inside or outside the office. The Cato Client provides remote users with Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA). The ability to provide a high-quality ZTNA solution was a key factor in Ranger Energy Services’ transition to SASE from Windstream Enterprise.

The ZTNA clients significantly improved Ranger’s remote users and work-from-home employees’ performance. ZTNA traffic was routed to the closest regional SASE point of presence (PoP), which meant a much lower latency and a significant reduction in trouble tickets.

Ranger’s IT staff members were impressed with the support teams at Windstream Enterprise throughout the deployment of ZTNA and SASE. “Ever since bringing on Cato and Windstream Enterprise, we’ve had a marked improvement in our networks,” says Matthew Bennett, senior IT manager at Ranger Energy Services….Click here to read the complete story of the Cato-Windstream Enterprise deployment.

About Ranger Energy Services

Ranger Energy Services is one of the largest providers of high specification mobile rig well services, cased hole wireline services and ancillary services in the U.S. oil and gas industry. Their services facilitate operations throughout the lifecycle of a well, including the completion, production, maintenance, intervention, workover and abandonment phases. They were operating their 25 locations on legacy multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) and point-to-point networks, which lacked resiliency and weren’t up to baseline cybersecurity standards for their industry. They needed a reliable, dedicated single-instance technology solution that could be implemented rapidly and customized without overburdening their IT staff.
