We’re a people focused
organization

A multinational accounting professional services firm tasked our team to support their network team in enhancing visibility into network traffic by identifying and selecting an optimal solution.

We meticulously assessed various solutions to ensure alignment with the company's requirements, leading to the selection of a cost-effective and efficient solution tailored to the specific use case. The optimal combination identified for the proof-of-concept test included Keysight taps, Viavi analytics, and CPacket for Azure, which stood out as the contenders' most functional and economical choices.

Our client is undergoing a comprehensive infrastructure modernisation initiative to implement a cutting-edge security framework aligned with Zero Trust principles. By leveraging our expertise, the client is strategically aligning with the NIST Zero Trust maturity model, selecting top-tier products for seamless integration to fulfil the specific capability needs of each maturity model pillar. This strategic approach is poised to establish a state-of-the-art data centre and infrastructure fortified by robust zero-trust security protocols.

To address the needs of the users and device pillars, we strategically utilised key Microsoft technologies, including Microsoft Entra (Azure AD) for robust identity management and Microsoft InTune for efficient device management. Our approach also involved leveraging tools such as Gitlab, Microsoft Purview, and TrendMicro to enhance data and application management while ensuring top-notch security measures. Considering the client's substantial on-premises network infrastructure with a mix of cloud services, we integrated VMware NSX-T to implement effective east-west micro-segmentation. This decision enhances network security and optimizes overall network performance. Moreover, we meticulously configured a suite of cutting-edge tools to fulfil the Automation Orchestration pillar requirements, including Microsoft Sentinel, Ansible, Elastic, Gigamon, and Microsoft Defender. This comprehensive setup ensures seamless automation and orchestration and enhanced visibility and analytics across the network infrastructure.

Our project focused on effectively mitigating risks in the critical mining industry. We aimed to enhance proactive threat detection and response mechanisms. By implementing file server agents and optimising remote desktop connections, our client in the mining sector successfully minimised vulnerabilities and significantly lowered the potential for security breaches.

By leveraging Helix's capabilities, we established streamlined security operations for our client. The centralised management and automation implemented ensured efficient incident handling and optimal resource allocation. Additionally, Trellix offered robust reporting features, enabling our client to showcase compliance with industry standards and regulations. This enhancement in transparency and adherence to rules has strengthened trust with stakeholders and bolstered the overall credibility of the organisation.
