One of the World's Oldest Banks

Powering a Revolutionary, Secure and Redundant Digital Asset Custody Platform

As one of the world’s largest custodian banks with over $43T in assets under administration and service, Client was looking to serve the evolving needs of institutional clients exploring and investing in cryptocurrencies, and needed a highly secure, powerful and redundant infrastructure solution to power their new digital asset custodial service. The first of its kind in the marketplace, AHEAD was asked to design, build and implement a solution under aggressive timelines for a Fall 2022 launch.

AHEAD is a long-standing technology partner of Client, with deep understanding of their infrastructure and high security standards. After consulting with the Client and key fintech security and compliance vendors, AHEAD devised 4 PODS to reside in the Client’s multi-site datacenters featuring components from Dell and Cisco to provide secure, robust and redundant performance.

Rush University Medical Center

Multi-Partner Data Center Refresh

As a result of a critical outage, Rush University Systems for Health (RUSH) sought to refresh their entire data center from the ground up. As a component of the refresh, the Rush team also wanted to update its networking components from ACI to NSX. RUSH brought in AHEAD team to navigate the complicated multi-partner landscape, including VMware, Cisco, Dell, and IBM.

Large Non-Profit Health System

Client is committed to proactively managing cybersecurity, a critical element of today’s healthcare IT environment. AHEAD conducted a data security assessment and made recommendations to bolster Client’s already robust security posture, adding layers of protection against ransomware and data exfiltration.

AHEAD implemented Dell’s CyberRecovery Vault technology to effectively protect Client’s data against exfiltration and ransomware attacks. In addition, Client expanded their Dell Data Domain and Isilon footprint to accommodate Client’s rapidly growing data storage and management requirements. AHEAD was able to financially engineer a Dell Transformational License Agreement (TLA) for the Client to reduce costs. In the end, the client proactively improved cybersecurity posture and increased data storage to support business growth, while also funding improvements through financial engineering without incurring incremental costs.
