PDI Managed Network Secure Edge: One Subscription for Network and Security

What Is PDI Managed Network Secure Edge?

PDI Managed Network Secure Edge (MNSE) combines managed firewall, managed switching, and 24/7 security monitoring into one subscription built for petroleum and convenience retail locations. It replaces separate hardware vendors, security firms, and dashboards with a single PDI team and a centralized management portal, and it deploys pre-configured for best-practice security rather than a blank setup. PDI’s security operations center monitors the network around the clock, and MNSE can extend to include managed Wi-Fi and high-speed internet connectivity as a location’s needs grow.

Key Takeaways

  • Replace multiple security and network vendors with a single accountable PDI team
  • See firewall, switching, and security events together in one management portal
  • Skip the upfront hardware investment with a subscription-based deployment model
  • Start from a pre-configured, best-practice security baseline
  • Add managed Wi-Fi and high-speed internet as a location’s needs grow

At PDI, we’ve spent more than four decades powering the backbone of petroleum and retail convenience software and technology. Today, we’re strengthening the digital central nervous system with PDI’s Managed Network Secure Edge, a converged solution set purpose-built for modern petroleum and retail convenience environments.

We’re not simply bringing newer hardware to market – another firewall, another switch, or another third-party security appliance. We’re delivering a converged solution that unifies managed network and cybersecurity services into a single, easy-to-manage subscription, giving customers the flexibility to harness modern technology on their terms without the burden of capital investment.

PDI proudly presents Managed Network Secure Edge, a bundle of firewall as a service, switch as a service, and our globally ranked in-house 24/7 SOC cybersecurity monitoring into one seamless subscription. These capabilities arrive prime for best-practice deployment, so our customers never start with a blank slate.

Petroleum and retail convenience systems are always on. Our customers depend on their network for everything: payments, loyalty, ERP systems, fuel operations, back office tools, and customer-facing applications. If the network fails, all business processes screech to a halt. PDI delivers integrated security oversight and management to help organizations maintain reliable, resilient, and compliance-aligned network environments.

This converged solution eliminates vendor sprawl and removes finger-pointing between disparate providers. Instead of managing separate hardware vendors, cybersecurity firms, portals, dashboards, and connectivity partners, our valued customers can work directly and exclusively with PDI.

PDI includes a robust management portal that allows our customers to have visibility into network infrastructure and cybersecurity events through a centralized interface. PDI cybersecurity customers gain visibility into device management, monitoring, reporting, and real-time network insights.

Behind the scenes, PDI handles that operational heavy lifting between proactive monitoring, security oversight, and optimized performance, freeing our customers’ IT teams from completing routine tasks and chasing alerts, so they can focus on tactical excellence.

And because PDI has built this entire system, it is extensible to meet customers’ unique needs. PDI security customers can also layer and manage Wi-Fi, manage high-speed internet connectivity, and additional network services. These capabilities seamlessly layer into the same ecosystem, easy to implement, affordable, and robust. No complexity, just scalable infrastructure built for growth.

Most importantly, PDI makes your full network our responsibility. Our customers’ IT teams experience liberation from the day-to-day complexities of networking, patching, troubleshooting, and vendor coordination. They instead concentrate on strategic initiatives that drive business performance and customer experience.

With PDI as your partner, you get a purpose-built converged security solution backed by deep industry expertise and accountability. Let us deliver the reliability, security, and compliance support to meet and exceed all your operational demands, so you can focus on growing your business with confidence.
