Challenges
With 19,000+ employees across 120+ facilities handling PII and financial data, the company needed to secure its communications, bring identity and device management under one roof, and replace passwords with biometric login — without interrupting operations or missing regulatory requirements. Three blockers stood in the way.
Sensitive data unprotected across all states
No centralized identity and device management
Password-dependent authentication
The hard part wasn’t standing up the PKI. It was integrating it with Intune and Windows Hello across 120+ facilities and 19,000+ employees without interrupting a 165-year-old business.
