General Info

A fast-growing insurtech company operating across three countries managed sensitive personal and financial data daily.

However, their security posture was fragmented — identity management was inconsistent, endpoint protection varied by region, and there were no unified DLP policies to safeguard confidential information.

With increasing regulatory pressure and internal compliance requirements, they needed a comprehensive, modern cybersecurity framework based on Microsoft 365, Entra ID, and Intune.n-critical environments of their datacenter operations.

Zakini led a full cybersecurity and compliance transformation project, implementing identity synchronization, data protection, DLP policies, collaboration security, and endpoint management, all using native Microsoft technologies.

The engagement included configuration, troubleshooting, workshops, and a complete POC to validate controls across all business units.

All work and capabilities referenced below were validated through the final project documentation
