Case Study — Cloud Operations

Enterprise Cloud Platform Operations

Enterprise AWS Platform Saves New Applications Weeks of Security Work.

Federal Justice Agency
The challenge

Secure cloud, without starting over.

More than a dozen agency components needed compliant AWS environments. Each new application faced weeks of repeated security work, while account and access requests moved by email with no audit trail. A new operations team also had to take over without a break in service.

Repeated security effort

New applications needed a more consistent path to compliant cloud environments.

Requests without an audit trail

Email-based account and access requests needed a governed workflow.

Continuity through transition

Enterprise operations had to continue as the new team came into place.

The shared foundation

One platform. A consistent way to operate.

OmniVista runs the enterprise AWS Landing Zone across GovCloud and commercial regions. New applications inherit the platform’s common controls, saving each project weeks of security work.

Shared controls connect agency applications to a consistent cloud foundation.

Operational continuity

A new team. Continuous operations.

OmniVista replaced email requests with a governed self-service workflow, built hardened server images, and brought security findings into one monitoring view.

The team also established a weekend on-call rotation, with a root-cause analysis for every alert—supporting the platform’s day-to-day operations while improving how it was managed.
