Leading workplace insurer automates IP address management

Challenge

Operating across the United States and the UK, Unum is a leading provider of financial protection benefits available at the workplace. It offers employer and employee-funded disability, life, accident, and critical illness cover to protect millions of people and their families in the event of illness or injury. Unum has won many industry awards and is consistently rated in the top three for both individual and group protection.
