Introduction
Balancing security with ease of access to network and application resources is a major challenge for organizations when working collaboratively with external stakeholders during multi-phase projects. The mix of employees, business partners, contractors, and even customers each requiring different levels of secure access that can change based on device, location and stage of the project can lead to lengthy on-boarding periods and complex management tasks for busy IT departments.
Delays in granting secure access hamper the success of projects while cutting corners can lead to security issues and breaches of regulatory requirements. Pulse Secure Access for the Next Generation provides solutions designed to solve the challenges of access control, SSL VPN, and mobile device security.
Challenge
The Tourism Development & Investment Company (TDIC) is a master developer of major tourism destinations in Abu Dhabi. TDIC was created in 2006 as the dedicated tourism asset management and development arm of the Abu Dhabi Tourism and Culture Authority (TCA Abu Dhabi), in order to drive the investment, growth and development of the Emirate’s tourism sector. TDIC have been actively involved in many of the Emirate’s most prestigious and high profile projects.
Most of the projects handled by TDIC are collaborative efforts that include many international partners including brand owners, architects, project managers and suppliers along with engineering, legal and other specialist contractors required across the phases of each project. Massive construction projects such as The St Regis Saadiyat Island Resort can span over many years requiring input from hundreds of people working with budgets running into hundreds of millions of dollars.
