How Systemair got API security under control across 51 countries
Systemair runs close to 90 companies across 51 countries. That kind of scale makes secure data communication non-negotiable. When their ERP system couldn't deliver it, they had to look elsewhere.
Systemair is a leading ventilation company operating across Europe, North America, the Middle East, Asia, Australia and Africa, with around 6,600 employees.
The group helps improve indoor climate through energy-efficient, sustainable products that reduce carbon dioxide emissions, working across roughly 90 companies worldwide.
A gap in API security, at global scale
Infor M3 simply didn't have effective API security functionality built in. For a company managing data communication across as many divisions as Systemair does, that gap wasn't a minor inconvenience, it was an operational hurdle with real security exposure.
Ensuring data moved securely and efficiently between systems and regions became genuinely impractical without the right tooling in place.
Hear from Systemair
Systemair went looking for a solution that could integrate seamlessly into existing operations rather than force a rebuild, and Vince Security Center (VSE) stood out. It provided the security framework the company needed and closed the API management gap directly. The decision was reinforced by how flexible VSE proved to be, how well it adapted during adjustments, and the collaboration with Vince through the early stages of implementation. A thorough verification process followed, and VSE didn't just meet the requirements, it became part of daily operations.

Filling the gap with Vince
Today, VSE runs as part of Systemair's daily routine, prioritizing API security across every global division. Two admin users and three end users manage the whole thing, keeping data transmissions efficient and secure without a large team behind it. The time saved is hard to put a number on, but the shift in how manageable API security has become is clear, and it's earned positive feedback from management along the way.
Looking ahead, Systemair is exploring more of what VSE can do, with a focus on Active Directory functionality next. It's a natural next step for a company that treats security as something to keep building on, not a box to check once.
