Case Study: Claude achieves secure, governed system access with Abstrakt Solutions' Claude Connectors and MCP Consulting

Claude accelerates connector rollout in 2 to 4 weeks with Abstrakt Solutions

The customer, a company using Claude powered by Anthropic, faced the challenge of securely connecting their AI assistant to internal systems like Microsoft 365 and an ERP. Their goal was to allow Claude to access and summarize data using each employee's own permissions, but they lacked the integration expertise and security framework to do this safely without risking unauthorized access.

Abstrakt Solutions implemented a secure connection strategy using Claude Connectors and the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The solution included designing an access matrix, setting up directory connectors for cloud services, and building a custom OAuth-secured MCP server for the internal ERP. This provided scoped access so Claude could only see what each user was permitted to, and all tool calls were logged. The result was a successful read-first pilot that enabled secure adoption of Claude without the need for manual data pasting.
