Case Study: Burgess Group eliminates configuration drift and verifies deployments with UpGuard

Burgess Group uses UpGuard for HIPAA and PCI compliance

Burgess Group, which builds integrated payer and provider network management solutions and handles HIPAA‑regulated healthcare data, faced rising risk from configuration drift as its infrastructure scaled. While Octopus Deploy automated installs, Burgess needed pre‑ and post‑deployment visibility to validate environment configurations, so they engaged UpGuard for configuration drift management, change monitoring, and variance reporting.

UpGuard compared Burgess Group’s staging and production environments, surfaced previously undetected drift, and enabled post‑deployment scans to verify changes against approved configurations. Using UpGuard’s familiar policy‑based approach, Burgess began locating, prioritizing, and remediating drift within a week, regained confidence in releases after Octopus runs, and reduced the risk of untracked machine- and human-caused failures while improving overall infrastructure quality.
