Case Study: Tata Sons achieves secure, seamless zero trust connectivity with NetFoundry Cloud

VPN Alternative Tata Sons’ Shift to NetFoundry’s Zero Trust AppNets

Tata Sons, the principal investment holding company and promoter of the Tata group, needed to improve its IT security posture and overcome performance bottlenecks. The challenge involved moving away from vulnerable VPN technology and multiple point solutions to support its distributed workforce and applications hosted across various clouds and data centers. They sought a VPN alternative that would provide seamless, secure access and a zero trust architecture.

NetFoundry implemented its Zero Trust AppNets via the NetFoundry Cloud platform. This software-only solution replaced SSL VPNs, MPLS, and SDWAN, providing a secure, microsegmented network overlay. The results included a 70% reduction in cost compared to point solutions, 99.999% uptime over four years, and a security architecture that exceeds the NIST zero trust framework.
