Case Study: Leading Original Equipment Manufacturer secures cloud migration and cuts TCO with Thales SafeNet Trusted Access

German Manufacturing Group selected SafeNet Trusted Access to move securely to the Cloud

Leading Original Equipment Manufacturer, a world‑leading OEM with thousands of employees worldwide, needed to move securely to the cloud while reducing on‑premises infrastructure and preserving its existing remote logon experience using Thales SafeNet eToken PASS hardware tokens. To protect new cloud apps such as Office 365 and maintain continuity for users, the customer selected Thales and its SafeNet Trusted Access service.

Thales implemented SafeNet Trusted Access, integrating in just a few hours with the customer’s Active Directory, VPN and VDI and using automated migration tools to get the service running in a few days. The deployment lowered TCO by removing on‑prem servers, reduced risk by separating access management from cloud providers, improved IT productivity with self‑enrollment and token lifecycle automation, and enhanced user experience with SafeNet MobilePASS+—all while enabling the OEM to extend SSO and MFA across future cloud applications.
