Project Overview:
CatchMark was asked by a customer to help solve a problem they were experiencing with remote workers. The customer uses Microsoft Teams which works from any network connection. There are a few tasks outside of Teams that require the end users to connect to the company VPN to execute. What the customer had noticed is most end users were not connecting to the VPN unless they had to complete those tasks. This was creating a risk to the computers, and company information. The solution provided by CatchMark was the implementation of a secure access service edge (SASE) solution that eliminated the manual VPN process. With this solution, the connection is always secure without any interaction from the end users.
Project Duration
This project was completed within a 60-day window.
Technology Stack
- Perimeter 81
Project Challenges
The only challenge faced with this project was the coordination with each end user to configure their computer with the software. They do not all work out of a single location or on a single shift.
Results
CatchMark completed the project on time and under budget. The customer now has a layer of security for all of their computers that requires no manual interaction to be enabled.
