Client Profile

A US-based federal government contractor offering compliance and risk management solutions across healthcare and public sectors.

Challenges

The organization had to transition from legacy terminal servers to a secure digital workspace environment to meet federal contract requirements:

Required infrastructure for 500 concurrent users.
Needed to secure sensitive government data.
Key tools like SAS had to be virtualized.
MFA had to be enforced with minimal workflow disruption.
Load balancers required SSL encryption.

Anunta’s Solution

The client needed a secure and compliant infrastructure fast, to support hundreds of new users. Anunta designed a highly secure, on-premises virtual desktop platform tailored for federal compliance standards, using industry best practices in segmentation, encryption, and role-based access.

Anunta built high-availability ESXi clusters and golden images to support rapid provisioning. Key applications like SAS and internal tools were tested for compatibility, and access pathways were carefully validated. Multi-Factor Authentication was integrated in a way that balanced usability with strict compliance.

The team also configured SSL certificates on F5 load balancers to encrypt traffic, meeting federal data protection mandates. Long-term Day 2 support—including monitoring, patching, and escalation management—was set up to ensure the environment remained secure and efficient as user count grew.
