VMWare integration at First Technology Credit Union
The Challenge

A prominent credit union encountered multiple obstacles in establishing a secure, dependable, and scalable Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) for its staff. The current VDI system, built on an obsolete platform, posed challenges due to high maintenance costs, performance issues, and limited scalability. Moreover, the credit union aimed to enhance workforce flexibility and mobility by enabling employees to utilise personal devices and access their desktops from various locations. Meeting stringent regulatory and security standards, ensuring seamless business operations, and implementing robust disaster recovery measures were crucial objectives for the credit union.

Full Stack Guidance for Zero Trust
The Challenge

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.

The Solution

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.

The Benefits

Before implementing these tools in the client's environment, they lacked comprehensive visibility into their end devices and network traffic. By seamlessly integrating a tailored suite of tools in collaboration with the client, they achieved unparalleled visibility across their entire environment, spanning from individual devices to network infrastructure. This newfound visibility enables them to proactively identify and respond to potential threats in real-time, leveraging advanced analytics to enhance their security posture and overall operational efficiency.
