About the Client

The client is a leading chemical company in India, specializing in manufacturing and distribution. The company required a robust Master Data Governance system to streamline data entry and approval processes for vendors, customers, and material management. 

The Problem

The company faced inefficiencies in data management and SAP integration due to outdated processes: 

  • SAP customization constraints, making changes difficult without disrupting future upgrades 
  • Heavy reliance on Excel sheets, leading to frequent errors and inefficiencies 
  • Direct SAP access requirements, posing security and compliance risks 
  • Underutilized SharePoint licenses, resulting in unnecessary IT costs 

To enhance data governance and approval workflows, a centralized, automated solution was essential. 

Our Approach

Lauren took swift action by isolating the compromised server and disconnecting it from the network. We initiated comprehensive scans on all applications and conducted a vulnerability assessment test for all endpoints, firewalls, applications, and cPanel. Immediately, we severed the server’s connection to the Disaster Recovery(DR) site and promptly initiated the creation of backups for existing data in Azure Data Lake. The workload was efficiently shifted using Azure connectors and Azure Sync, ensuring the Azure cloud remained in active mode throughout the process. To enhance security further, we promptly changed the IP addresses of users and modified the Fully Qualified Domain Name(FQDN) to an alternate one. Additionally, we ran scans across the entire infrastructure layers, utilizing existing OEM’s security products for added protection.
