In response to increased demand at the onset of the pandemic, Redcentric, one of the UK\u2019s leading IT managed service providers, had to quickly scale its connectivity solutions. Rising to the challenge, Thales launched a full-scale rollout of its cloud-based Access and Management and Authentication platform to support Redcentric\u2019s need for increased and secure connectivity solutions, while also meeting compliance issues on protecting access to sensitive services. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a managed service provider with a particular focus on healthcare, at the height of COVID-19, Redcentric was faced with the need to deliver a solution that could cope with increasing demand from customers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Redcentric worked tirelessly to help alleviate that strain, rapidly scaling its connectivity solution. The provider turned to its long-term partner, Thales, and the organisation was able to scale its cloud-based Access and Management and Authentication platform, SafeNet Trusted Access, authenticating all software and cloud applications across multiple platforms and devices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
By validating identities, enforcing access policies and applying smart single sign-on, the service ensured secure, convenient access to numerous cloud and web-based applications. Addressing Redcentric\u2019s need for an instantly scalable and reliable solution throughout healthcare organisations across the public sector, including NHS Trusts such as NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
