SWALLOW DENTAL SUPPLIES

Solution

LastPass:

One of the solutions we provided was LastPass, a robust password manager that helps businesses centralise their password storage. This is crucial as passwords are usually the first line of defence when it comes to protecting businesses from cyber-attacks and data breaches. This was incredibly useful for Swallow as they would face the challenge of managing and tracking their wide range of different passwords and credentials. This enabled Swallow Dental to consolidate their passwords into one central hub allowing secure sharing across the organisation. It also helped boost their digital security due to the unique security features LastPass provides. All passwords stored in their LastPass vault is encrypted using AES-256 encryption. This means that even in the event of a data breach, decrypting and deciphering the data is incredibly difficult, protecting their data it ends up in the wrong hands. The platform also includes a security challenge feature that assesses their password strength and identifies passwords that are weak or reused and provides suggestions for stronger passwords. To ensure an efficient implementation, we used the Active Directory Sync and Group Policy to allow LastPass Add-In to be on the web browser by default. This helped us effectively ensure that all user devices had it installed so all users could start using LastPass as soon as possible.

Microsoft Intune:

A significant number of Swallow Dental’s staff had Microsoft applications installed onto their mobile devices to ensure they could work from anywhere and stay updated with the business. However, having these apps on their phone provides another entry point for cyber criminals to obtain their sensitive data. Which is why we also offered Swallow with Microsoft Intune which is a cloud-based service and mobile device management (MDM) solution which combines productivity with business protection. Intune applies security on all their employee’s accounts, regardless of what device they’re working on. It also manages how devices can be used and control what content users and devices have access to. MS Intune also includes endpoint security, allowing us to protect their PCs by managing security policies. We rolled out MS Intune to help avoid the organisation’s data from being exploited in case of theft and staff leaving. The policy our team rolled out allows all the organisations application to be locked and require 2FA to get into the system.

Network Transformation:

In addition to protecting their business, we also helped transform their network to boost their productivity and help their business to run smoothly. We modernised their existing network and optimised configurations to boost efficiency and reliability. This transformation helped improve their overall performance, allowing them to suit their business growth and business demands. Our team of experts did this in a way that minimised downtime and disruptions to their business.
