Stoneridge helps you optimize your Microsoft Azure environment by providing a number of services:

  • Data consolidation and migration from locally hosted (on-prem) to cloud

Roadmapping

A project roadmap provides you with a clear vision and strategic plan on how you will advance through the many stages of your project. It also gives you tangible strategic plans you can present to the necessary stakeholders and employees to ensure your entire team is aligned on methodology, expectations, and goals.

Envisioning Sessions

Stoneridge experts bring valuable expertise and years of insight to the table when meeting with you to discuss your vision and goals. We will meet with your team to brainstorm ideas on how to address challenges, identify opportunities, and improve your project workflows.

Scalable Backups and Recovery

Microsoft Azure offers you secure and scalable storage options, giving you peace of mind when considering how to protect both your structured and unstructured data. There are two main pieces to this puzzle:

Azure Backup

Automates backups and data protection, eliminating your need for costly and bulky on-premises servers.

Azure Site Recovery

Enables quick replication and recovery of data and workloads in the case of a disaster.

Simply put, Microsoft Azure gives you solid data protection, excellent backup capabilities, and automatic regulatory compliance. Another perk is Azure’s flexible pricing, making it an affordable and cost-efficient solution for organizations of all sizes.

Empowering Your Security with Identity and Access Strategies

A dynamic and well-managed security, identity, and access strategy is critical in today’s digital landscape. Cyber threats are becoming more common and more sophisticated, meaning the need for proactive security measures has never been more important. It not only protects your employees, your stakeholders, your partners, and most importantly your customers, but it also gives them confidence in your organization.

So, what can Stoneridge Software’s Cloud Consulting resources offer you?

Identity and Access Management (IAM)

Stoneridge will assess your current Identity and Access Management (IAM) strategy to identify opportunities for improvement and put together the next steps. IAM is a critical security measure that safeguards your sensitive data from unauthorized access. It also:

  • Ensures your users have the proper level of access, minimizing data bleeds or leaks
  • Streamlines user access management, authentication, and authorization processes enhancing efficiency and reducing administrative tasks.
  • Allows you to enact and optimize IAM policies and procedures.

Security Assessments and Consulting

Our experts will meet with your team and analyze your current security processes to identify vulnerabilities, deficiencies, and potential risks. This gives you a holistic view of your environment and a picture of what can be improved. After that, you can prioritize investments and allocate the proper resources to the places that need them most.

From there we will get to work with you on creating a roadmap and then setting up your Microsoft Azure environment so you can take advantage of the many benefits of the Microsoft cloud.
