The challenge
The client was working to improve their security practices across the organization
The client operated a large environment involving 6 IBM i environments
The client had the skill on their team to maintain their IBM environments but did not have deep expertise in IBM i security and best practices
Our solution
To understand the current state of their security, Quadbridge proposed and was contracted to complete our IBM i risk assessment
Following our unique IBM specific methodology, we reviewed the clients 6 environments. We produced a comprehensive report for each environment and presented our findings and recommendations
Brydens agreed with our advice and approach. They decided to further contract Quadbridge for the following two services:
Enforcive and Related Services: the client subscribed to the Enforcive security software solution along with our implementation and ongoing support and log review services
Remediation Services: Quadbridge’s IBM security experts are completing a phase 1 remediation project to address a range of high priority vulnerabilities through configurations, updates, clean-up, and other foundational work. We have planned for and anticipate a phase 2 remediation project as well
As a result of our partnership, Brydens has gained a better understanding of their IBM security, has closed a number critical vulnerabilities, and has more control over their environment
Client feedback
“Quadbridge has quickly become a trusted extension of our team. They have been a wealth of IBM knowledge and skill and have brought us the expertise we needed. Instead of wondering, we now know how we’re vulnerable and what we need to do – and it’s all thanks to Quadbridge.”
