They must also go through a stringent solution review process, as well as customer reference checks.

Over the past years, ActivSupport has worked with Microsoft and other security vendors to successfully implement several end-to-end security solutions. In order to apply for Gold Certified Partner status for Security Solutions, ActivSupport was required to submit three customer security projects. The first project was a network security assessment for a biotech startup. The second was a project encompassing infrastructure upgrade, a core business application design, and both physical and logical security evaluation, remediation and ongoing monitoring for a leading healthcare provider in California. The third reference was a network security overhaul including both local and remote networks for an insurance company.
