Case Study: Accrete Inc. strengthens data protection and failover with NordLayer

How Accrete Inc. prepared for failover to protect the sensitive data of high-profile clients

Accrete Inc., an AI company serving government, financial services, entertainment, and consumer packaged goods clients, needed to secure a fully cloud-based environment with a globally distributed workforce. Because it handles sensitive data for high-risk customers, including the U.S. Department of Defense, the company had to meet strict security requirements like FedRAMP and NIST 800-171 while ensuring safe access from the U.S. and India. NordLayer helped address the need for secure access through a VPN-based solution with allowlisted entry and stronger network protection.

Accrete Inc. implemented NordLayer alongside its broader security stack, including Okta SSO, MFA, IP allowlisting, and private gateways, to add an extra layer of network security and create failover for outages. By deploying at least two private servers and adding VPN gateways in both the U.S. and India, NordLayer improved availability, resilience, and user coverage across the organization. The result was stronger protection for sensitive data, better compliance readiness, and secure, reliable access for 100% of staff.
