Case Study: a retail product and services company improves cloud security with Converge Technology Solutions

Nation-Wide Retailer Shines a Light on Shadow IT to Improve Cloud Security

A retail product and services company was challenged by the risks of shadow IT after its rapid, company-wide shift to the cloud. Suspecting that other departments had enabled cloud services without IT oversight, the CISO needed to discover its cloud exposure but lacked the internal skills. They engaged Converge Technology Solutions for a Cloud Security Assessment to uncover these deployments and identify security risks.

Converge conducted the assessment, providing an independent report that detailed the cloud services in use and identified misconfigurations. This led the client to halt all development and deployments to address security. Converge then participated in workshops to integrate security controls into the CI/CD pipeline and establish preventative guardrails. The solution from Converge Technology Solutions embedded and streamlined security controls, resulting in improved protection for the company's critical assets.
