Case Study: Ahresty strengthens authentication security with SoftwareOne

Authentication Modernisation gives Ahresty new levels of confidence

Ahresty, a Japan-based aluminum die-casting manufacturer with operations across Asia and the Americas, needed to modernize its aging on-premises authentication environment after issues with Active Directory and the approaching end of support for ADFS. The company turned to SoftwareONE for help with its migration path to Microsoft Entra ID and the broader digital workplace security challenge, including identity and access management modernization.

SoftwareONE implemented a cloud-based authentication model using Entra ID, along with Conditional Access and Microsoft Intune, and supported the rollout across domestic and overseas offices. The project covered around 3,000 seats in multiple countries and helped Ahresty improve security, move closer to zero trust, reduce on-premises infrastructure and administrative burden, and increase access efficiency and user productivity.
