Case Study: Staffordshire County Council achieves enhanced network security and cost savings with SecureData

Staffordshire County Council - Customer Case Study

Staffordshire County Council, which provides services to around 800,000 residents and also manages firewall gateways for several district councils, faced a contract renewal and an infrastructure refresh challenge. Their three-year firewall support contract was up for tender, older appliances needed replacement and all gateways and the management platform required upgrades, so the council ran a competitive, detailed procurement to secure the best value and ongoing support under tight budget constraints.

SecureData won the tender by demonstrating strong SLA performance, expert consultancy and smart licensing that reduced overall costs. They rebuilt and upgraded the firewalls and management console, completed a high-availability out-of-hours upgrade on schedule, and provided 24x7 support with accredited engineers—delivering improved security, on-budget savings and continued trusted cybersecurity partnership for the next three years.
