Case Study: Korn Ferry achieves simplified data residency and stronger client trust with Microsoft Corporation's Multi-Geo Capabilities in Office 365

Korn Ferry earns client trust with simplified data residency solution with Multi-Geo Capabilities in Office 365

Korn Ferry, a global executive search and recruiting firm serving clients from 85 offices worldwide, needed a way to meet diverse regional and industry data residency and privacy requirements while supporting secure collaboration. The company used Microsoft Corporation’s Office 365 and Multi-Geo capabilities to address the complexity of protecting customer data across different geographies and regulations, including GDPR.

Microsoft Corporation implemented Multi-Geo Capabilities in Office 365 so Korn Ferry could store customer data in chosen geographies and avoid creating additional tenants for regions like Europe. The result was a single, Multi-Geo-enabled environment that replaced file server silos, improved global employee collaboration, strengthened compliance and security, and helped Korn Ferry better serve clients with less operational complexity.
