How an International Architecture Firm Leveled Up Its Security Posture

Sheehan Nagle Hartray Architects (SNHA) is a leading full-service architectural firm that, until recently, was faced with several cybersecurity challenges—particularly poor password habits. That’s where Dashlane came in.

Between weak password use and unsecure sharing methods, employees at SNHA were risking millions every time they unsecurely shared a password. Not only did this leave the organization vulnerable to theft, but the sheer number of credentials was becoming too difficult to manage.

With a team of more than 100, from architects to interior designers, the firm needed a solution that everyone could and would use.

One of the organization’s program coordinators first found Dashlane and was impressed by its intuitive design and easy-to-use features. The IT team quickly saw its value for the business side.

SNHA decided to first roll out Dashlane to its IT and admin team.

As Tom recalls, it was a success: “From the start, both IT and the admin teams used it a lot. Everyone has so many passwords to remember and Dashlane seemed like a no-brainer to have.”

The SNHA team began managing their passwords securely and quickly with the help of Dashlane’s simple deployment and onboarding processes.

It wasn’t long before Tom began to see improvements in SNHA’s cybersecurity posture, thanks to a variety of Dashlane’s features, including:

One key result? A 20% increase in the firm’s Password Health Score in less than seven months.
