As is typical of the legal industry, The 36 Group have a very traditional way of working. With 90-100 barristers working on very sensitive and high profile cases, in addition to being very tightly regulated industry, their data security was of paramount importance. The Chambers were dependant on servers which were stored in the cellar of their listed London office and because of this there were a number of complex issues surrounding their Data Security and Disaster Recovery options.

Our primary objective was to simplify infrastructure at The 36 Group and move their on site data servers into our Tier 4 secure data centre.
Ensuring our clients were confident that their sensitive data was safe and protected was an essential part of the project. We were able to demonstrate to our customer that keeping their servers in our data centre was far more secure than their basement by taking them on a tour of the centre itself.

Furthermore, they could see that their data was being held in private cloud owned by a UK company and under the full extent of UK law, which was very appealing for them as a UK based legal firm.
Once the new infrastructure was in place we were able to set up virtual desktops for the firm within the data centre, freeing up the space in their office basement and giving them:
