The Challenge

A manufacturing company with 200 employees was running critical operations on aging infrastructure. Needed to modernize without disrupting production while addressing security gaps.

  • Production systems running on 10+ year old servers
  • No disaster recovery capability
  • OT and IT networks completely unsegmented
  • Zero tolerance for production downtime
  • Growing cyber insurance requirements

Our Solution

Developed phased migration plan. Implemented hybrid cloud architecture, deployed modern endpoint security, segmented OT networks, and established backup/DR capabilities.

  • Conducted comprehensive infrastructure assessment
  • Designed hybrid cloud architecture with Azure and on-premises systems
  • Implemented proper OT/IT network segmentation
  • Deployed modern endpoint protection across all systems
  • Established automated backup with 4-hour RTO
  • Migrated workloads during maintenance windows with zero downtime
  • Implemented 24/7 monitoring for both IT and OT environments

Migration Approach

Phase 1
Assessment & Planning
  • Infrastructure audit
  • Risk assessment
  • Migration roadmap
Phase 2
Security Foundation
  • Network segmentation
  • Endpoint protection
  • Monitoring deployment
Phase 3
Cloud Migration
  • Hybrid architecture
  • Workload migration
  • DR implementation
Phase 4
Optimization
  • Performance tuning
  • Cost optimization
  • Ongoing management

"They understood that we couldn't afford any production downtime. The migration was seamless, and our security posture is dramatically improved."
