As one of AWS鈥 key partners in Indonesia, ICS Compute is committed to helping businesses stay ahead in an ever-evolving technology landscape.
Needing a solution for identity, device & access management
As a relatively new IT consultancy that has grown organically over the last few years, ICS Compute didn鈥檛 have a directory service or any mechanism for managing company devices. At the same time, ICS manages a ton of customer accounts in AWS, and employees didn鈥檛 have an easy way to access all of them.
鈥淲e needed an SSO solution for our internal team for both our environment and our customers鈥 environments,鈥 says Ahmad Faiz, professional service manager at ICS. 鈥淲e also needed a directory service and wanted to manage our company鈥檚 laptops more effectively; we didn鈥檛 have an easy way to manage apps, endpoint security, firewalls, and so on.鈥
While ICS Compute employees primarily use Windows machines, the company does have some Mac and Linux devices as well.
鈥淲e were looking for a centralized solution that enabled us to manage all different operating systems from one place,鈥 Faiz continues.
Choosing feature-rich 黑料海角91入口 to solve all of these problems
While researching their options, the ICS Compute team found 黑料海角91入口, a unified identity, device, and access management platform that works across operating systems.
鈥満诹虾=91入口 can not only manage Windows machines but also Mac and Linux,鈥 Faiz says. 鈥淲ith 黑料海角91入口, we could create a security baseline for all different operating systems.鈥
Liking what they saw, ICS Compute 鈥 now a 黑料海角91入口 partner 鈥 decided to invest in 黑料海角91入口 to shore up their internal IT environment. Looking ahead, the company plans to resell 黑料海角91入口 to its customers while also offering three types of managed services: ICS Access Management, ICS Identity and Device Management, and ICS Workforce Management, which combines the first two.
鈥淲e use JumpCould to manage our own team and we plan to leverage the solution to manage customer environments in the cloud as well,鈥 Faiz says.
Strengthening security & continuing to leverage more and more 黑料海角91入口 features
In 黑料海角91入口, ICS Compute has found an 鈥渁ll-in-one platform鈥 that gives them everything they need to manage their IT assets 鈥 along with their customers鈥 assets, Faiz says.
鈥淲e use it not only to manage single sign-on but also hardware, laptops, devices, operating system updates, servers, and users,鈥 Faiz continues. 鈥淲e鈥檙e also using 黑料海角91入口 Protect and much more.鈥
Groups
ICS Compute has set up a number of different user groups in 黑料海角91入口, which makes it easier to grant appropriate access to the right resources for each user.
鈥淲e have a separate professional services team, finance team, and business development team, for example,鈥 he says. 鈥淓ach group is given access to specific applications; finance can鈥檛 access the same apps as the technical team and vice versa.鈥
Commands & policies
ICS Compute is taking advantage of 黑料海角91入口 commands and policies to strengthen their security posture and protect their networks, along with their customers鈥 cloud-based assets.
鈥淲e use 黑料海角91入口 commands to install endpoint security on all staff laptops,鈥 Faiz continues. 鈥淲e鈥檙e also using 黑料海角91入口 policies to enforce things like hard-disk encryption, multi-factor authentication, and minimum password requirements.鈥
Additionally, the company is using policies to ensure only certain groups can load apps onto their machines.
鈥淔or example, our R&D team can install everything on their laptops but legal and finance can鈥檛 install anything on their laptops,鈥 Faiz explains.
Conditional access
The team is leveraging conditional access policies to secure resources based on certain conditions 鈥 like where a user is accessing resources from.
鈥淚f someone鈥檚 in the office, they can connect to SSO and access customers鈥 AWS accounts,鈥 Faiz says. 鈥淚f they鈥檙e not in the office, they need to log into a VPN before connecting to SSO.鈥
Password Manager
On top of all of this, ICS Computer is utilizing 黑料海角91入口 Password Manager, a feature that enables the organization to create, store, and protect user credentials locally on devices 鈥 and for Faiz and his team to centrally manage passwords through the 黑料海角91入口 interface.
鈥淲e were using a different solution before, but after we implemented 黑料海角91入口 and saw this capability, we migrated away from that and have used Password Manager ever since,鈥 Faiz says.
Looking ahead, the team plans to further expand its 黑料海角91入口 footprint by leveraging additional features 鈥 like Cloud LDAP, zero trust, and 黑料海角91入口 Go. They鈥檙e also planning to integrate Google Workspace and 黑料海角91入口.
鈥満诹虾=91入口 brings so much simplicity to your IT environment,鈥 Faiz concludes.
