Agile and  Modern IT Solutions

An outdated data center with end-of-life hardware was causing increasing operational inefficiencies, reliability concerns, and security risks for our energy utility client. As the infrastructure aged, performance degraded, leading to slower processing speeds, higher latency, and increased maintenance requirements. The outdated systems also lacked support for the latest security updates, leaving the environment vulnerable to cyber threats and potential compliance issues. Additionally, the limitations of the legacy hardware made it difficult to scale operations or integrate new technologies, restricting the organization’s ability to meet growing business demands. A comprehensive modernization initiative was essential to enhance efficiency, improve security, and ensure long-term infrastructure stability.

We executed a seamless migration process by utilizing Dell servers, VMware ESXi Hypervisor, and vCenter controller. This involved setting up the new infrastructure alongside the legacy equipment, deploying ESXi and vCenter on the latest hardware, transferring existing VMs from the old environment to the new one, configuring the networking settings, transitioning the new system online, and successfully switching over from the old production setup to the latest production environment.

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 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.
