The problem

The customer's existing approach to cloud transition and Zero Trust ran into significant issues, and leadership was actively considering alternative solutions before the program could continue.

How BTA delivered

BTA introduced the SIMPLE process combined with automated tools and custom dashboards to streamline policy review and enforcement without disrupting applications. Implementation was phased: 17 application enforcements across environments, followed by 6 VDI cluster enforcements covering 15 personas, plus ongoing advisory services after launch.

Outcomes in production

Zero Trust security segmentation was deployed with zero incidents or downtime. Cisco Secure Workload now protects against ransomware and data breaches that threaten sensitive patient information. Ongoing advisory ensures the security posture evolves with emerging threats.

What makes us different

We're architects who execute.

Three principles every BTA engagement runs on. Visible in the work itself.

We architect, deploy, and stay through Day-2.
Every engagement is end-to-end. We design the target environment, deploy it in stages, and remain on hand through the operational handoff.
We train your team to own the outcome.
Training is part of every engagement. By the close of an engagement, your operators can run, maintain, and defend the system to an auditor.
We measure success when your team runs it alone.
An engagement closes when your team is operating the solution without us in the room. SIMPLE methodology enforces this exit criterion on every project.
