Challenge: A major South African Bank opted to implement Microsoft Office 365 for 40 000 plus users. They needed their people to be able to securely access services and data from any device or location, while obviating the consequent exponential security threats – whilst complying with regulatory requirements such as GDPR and POPI.

Challenge: One of South Africa’s largest banks had suffered business interruption due to infrastructure failures. With a variety of workloads including Hyper-V, VMWare, physical servers and SQL data bases, they became aware their existing monitoring tools were inadequate and security threats were not being detected. Added to the fact that they were suffering from lack of visibility in Office 365, they asked Netsurit to provide them with a cost-effective DR site away from their main business location.
