International Technology Solution Provider - Customer Case Study

International Technology Solution Provider, a loyalty and rewards technology firm serving major banks and financial institutions, needed a managed private cloud to support a large Canadian financial client that could not use public cloud. Key requirements were full PCI compliance, Canadian data sovereignty for both primary and disaster recovery sites, built-in disaster recovery capabilities, and always-on security to defend against evolving cyber threats.

Aptum delivered a customized, PCI‑compliant virtualized private cloud hosting and disaster recovery solution with data resident in Canada, building a PCI zone in its Montreal data center and adding managed servers, virtualization, Alert Logic Managed Detection and Response, DDoS protection and high‑speed connectivity. Aptum met the customer’s compliance and sovereignty requirements, achieved the anticipated business outcomes with no major issues, and reinforced a 10‑year relationship that provided the customer with operational reliability and peace of mind.
