TECHNOLOGY TRENDS
With plans to expand across Indian Markets, IT infrastructure and IT security become key integrators for consolidating our businesses, which are spread across multiple geographies. With that in mind, we have recently implemented SAP and ZTNA solutions to connect our site locations from private cloud DC, third party vendors and our own users through centralisation of IT Infrastructure and more importantly to ensure increased security. Collaborating with cloud based ZTNA security solutions provider based out of India has helped us reduce costs by almost 43% while provisioning increased security for SAP applications access to only pre authorised and pre authenticated users. ZTNA solutions that we use are hardware free, zero configuration solutions, which facilitate ease of connectivity and high potential for scalability as well. Apart from moving to Azure for O365 usage and sales process automation to seamlessly integrate all users and departments under one IT service set up, thus reducing the cost drastically.
In addition, implementing SDP based security has also helped us protect our application from any kind of DDoS, APT, MITM or Credential Theft attacks through integrated Zero Trust Network Access Solution. Now we can connect all our users to the network over the Internet and manage granular access to the application on our DC. Our priority has always been centred around safe and secure access, and our belief is that since technologies like Zero Trust security are the future, early adoption of such disruptive security solutions ensure an opportunity to better exploit the advantages associated with them.
CYBER SECURITY
With the adoption of multi cloud and hybrid cloud environments and the business demands of 24x7 availability, cyber security challenges have witnessed a manifold increase. Some of the most spoken about cyber threats are from DDoS, APT and Ransomware attacks. While the insider threat or credential theft through phishing is the major reason among 80% of cyber-attacks.
With the traditional models paving way for the newer technology, the IT infrastructures are undergoing drastic change in their architecture. Also, with increasing adoption of cloud, shared responsibility becomes one of the new areas every CISO is concerned with. So, cyber security today is of paramount importance to any organisation with digital resources.
“Given that Shriram Properties has been witnessing rapid growth, and is on the road to an IPO, there is a need for us to be compliant to various guidelines prescribed for corporate governance. Hence, we have already initiated several digital transformation processes across the organisation to provide a seamless experience to our internal and external users while enhancing the security posture to reduce the growing challenges faced by cyber threats.”
