Seamless Migration to Zscaler: Empowering a Leading UAE Property Developer with Secure, Cloud-First Connectivity
Overview
A leading UAE property developer, renowned for iconic real estate projects, partnered with Al Rostamani Communications to modernise its IT infrastructure. With operations across multiple sites and growing reliance on cloud applications, the organisation required a secure, scalable, high-performance network to support its digital transformation goals.
Challenges
The customer operated a legacy network and security stack from another vendor, creating constraints that affected performance, visibility, and manageability:
- Performance bottlenecks caused by backhauled traffic and centralised security appliances
- Limited visibility into user experience and application performance
- Inadequate data protection for sensitive business and customer information
- Complex management and high operational overhead
To remain competitive and agile, the organisation needed to move to a modern, cloud-native solution without disrupting ongoing operations.
The Solution
Al Rostamani Communications led a seamless migration from the legacy environment to Zscaler’s integrated cloud security platform, deploying:
- Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA): Secure, direct-to-cloud access, removing the need for traditional VPNs and backhauling
- Zscaler Private Access (ZPA): Zero Trust access to internal applications from any location
- Zscaler Data Loss Prevention (DLP): Central policies to prevent unauthorised sharing or leakage of sensitive data
- Zscaler Digital Experience (ZDX): Real-time visibility into application, network, and device performance for proactive IT support
- Centralised policy management: Simplified administration with consistent security enforcement for all users and locations
The migration was executed with zero downtime, ensuring uninterrupted business continuity.
Impact
- Improved user experience through direct-to-cloud access and ZDX insights
- Stronger security posture with DLP policies across channels and endpoints
- Lower operational overhead via centralised management and automation
- Future-ready architecture that supports rapid expansion and smart-tech adoption
Results
Al Rostamani Communications delivered a smooth, risk-controlled transition from the legacy stack to Zscaler, minimising disruption and accelerating time to value. The customer now benefits from a secure, agile, and high-performance IT environment that advances innovation and operational excellence across its portfolio.
