Challenges

• They wanted a dedicated and secure environment for these users, as they are related to highly secure and confidential government contracts, such as the Department of Health and Human Services.
• The company was searching for a reliable technology service provider to migrate them from the terminal server environment to a more robust and secure platform and to continue support post-deployment.
