Case Study — Sports & Entertainment
At A Glance
This professional baseball club runs a busy ballpark operation where the point-of-sale system, front office and game-day operations all depend on infrastructure that has to work on game night. Across a long-standing relationship, the club has engaged AIS for enterprise-grade security, cloud migration and end-user hardware.
The Solution We Delivered
AIS implemented Managed Detection and Response and managed risk services across the club’s environment, deploying a network sensor and agents on every server and workstation, and unifying telemetry from endpoint protection, Active Directory, Microsoft 365 and network security into one monitored view, with security awareness training for front-office staff. AIS then migrated the club’s domain controller and point-of-sale database server to Azure, deploying a Meraki virtual appliance for secure SD-WAN connectivity between the ballpark and the cloud, and validating through user acceptance testing. A phased refresh of 20 staff machines followed, staged and swapped user by user around front-office schedules, with pre-configured spares left ready for future hires.
Results & Impact
MDR and managed risk services fully live, with all log flows confirmed operational
Domain controller and point-of-sale database migrated to Azure with secure site-to-cloud connectivity
On-premises server hardware retired at the ballpark
All 20 staff machines deployed in phased, low-disruption rollouts
Security awareness established for front-office staff
Partnership Moving Forward
AIS continues to manage the club’s security, cloud and network environment inside a relationship spanning many seasons.
