emt Distribution Simplifies Policy Management with usecure's uPolicy

Managing a growing team while delivering exceptional service to partners and clients is a significant challenge for any large organization. For emt Distribution, a value-added software distributor specializing in cybersecurity solutions, this challenge was compounded by the need to keep track of an expanding number of internal policies across hundreds of employees.

But through their partnership with usecure, emt was able to overcome these hurdles and drastically reduce their administrative overhead.

About emt Distribution

With a presence spanning across Australia, New Zealand, and the Asia-Pacific region, emt Distribution has built a reputation as a leading cybersecurity distributor over its 28-year history. Their focus on helping IT Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and other businesses mitigate cyber threats has allowed them to foster strong, lasting relationships across the technology sector.

However, as emt grew in scale, managing internal policies, employee compliance, and ensuring the highest standards of security became increasingly challenging.

The Challenge: A Growing Administrative Burden

As emt continued to expand its team and partner network, the task of managing internal policy documents became more complex. With hundreds of employees spread across different regions, the need for a solution to manage, update, and track policy compliance became clear.

emt’s leadership was determined to maintain its high standards of security and service but realized that manually tracking policy approvals and version control was eating into valuable time that could be spent supporting their clients.

The Solution: Automation with usecure's uPolicy

That’s when emt turned to usecure’s uPolicy for help. uPolicy offered emt exactly what they needed: a flexible and automated way to manage their policy library and keep track of employee signatures.

With uPolicy, emt was able to:

• Automate policy updates: New policies and revisions could be sent out to the relevant staff automatically, ensuring no one was left out of the loop.
• Track employee signatures: uPolicy’s automated signature tracking made it easy for emt to see which employees had signed each policy, with reminders going out to those who hadn’t yet complied.
• Simplify version control: Instead of juggling multiple versions of policies, uPolicy ensured that only the most up-to-date versions were live and accessible to staff.
• Reduce admin time: By automating much of the policy management process, emt freed up significant time, allowing their team to focus more on serving their partners.

Results: Increased Efficiency and Reduced Overhead

By implementing uPolicy, emt Distribution significantly reduced the time spent on policy management, freeing up resources to better serve their customers. The company was able to ensure compliance across its large team without the need for manual follow-ups or excessive administrative work.

What’s more, the time they saved allowed them to focus on what they do best: helping their MSP partners mitigate cyber risks.

As Scott Hagenus, Director of Security Solutions at emt, stated:

usecure encompasses policy management and auditing,
cyber security awareness training, testing and simulations
as well as a level of breach detection that allows our
partners and their customers to identify their level of
exposure to human risk and reduce it

Beyond Policy Management: Addressing Human Cyber Risk

In addition to the benefits of uPolicy, emt Distribution took full advantage of usecure’s platform to tackle other key areas of human cyber risk. They implemented usecure’s security awareness training, phishing simulations, and dark web scanning to ensure their employees were well-equipped to handle the latest cyber threats.

These tools allowed emt to strengthen their internal cybersecurity posture while providing their partners with an additional layer of confidence in their operations.

Conclusion: A Partnership Built on Efficiency

emt Distribution’s partnership with usecure is a testament to how the right tools can transform the way a company operates. By automating policy management with uPolicy, emt was able to maintain its high standards of compliance while freeing up time to focus on building relationships with their partners.

For other distributors and large organizations facing similar challenges, emt’s experience shows the power of automation in reducing administrative burdens and driving efficiency.
