Goal

What the client needed to achieve

After a series of acquisitions, a large energy company needed to strengthen its cybersecurity posture and unify multiple Wi-Fi networks into a single, secure environment. The goal was to reduce exposure to internal and external cyber threats while improving user experience and accessibility.

The company selected Zscaler as its all-in-one solution for network protection, activity monitoring, and secure remote access. Sendero was engaged to lead project management and change management efforts to implement the new Wi-Fi and VPN infrastructure across all locations.
