An IP-sensitive manufacturer operating in a high-risk sector moved from daily exposure to a zero-trust, audit-ready security posture in less than a quarter. With Krish’s expertise in Microsoft 365 security and compliance, they secured all users and devices, enforced strict data controls, and regained eligibility for client contracts they were at risk of losing.
Client Background
A leading manufacturing company catering to high-tech industries was operating with minimal IT governance. As project complexity grew, so did the risks such as unsecured communications, unmanaged endpoints, and non-compliant tools that were threatening client trust and regulatory alignment.
Problems
- Sensitive IP was Exposed: Project files and client documents were shared over WhatsApp and personal email without encryption or control.
- Competitors Exploited Insider Access: Temporary hires planted by rivals extracted information and returned to their original firms.
- No Device or Policy Governance: Unlicensed tools and unprotected laptops led to non-compliance with ISO 27001 and SOC 2 requirements.
Solutions
- Device Audit and Hardening: Krish scanned all endpoints, rebuilt 100+ systems with secure images, and enforced encryption, BIOS lock, and firewall policies.
- Microsoft 365 Rollout: Secure collaboration was enabled with Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Exchange Online, replacing all unsecured tools.
- Full Security Governance: Defender, Intune, and Purview delivered real-time protection, data classification, and conditional access enforcement.
Business Value
- Zero-trust architecture is now standard across all users and devices.
- Client contracts were protected with ISO 27001 and SOC 2 compliance alignment.
- Data leaks and insider threats have been eliminated with centralized governance.
- All employees now work on encrypted, policy-compliant, company-managed devices.
- Security became a foundation for trust, continuity, and future scalability.
This transformation helped the client regain control of its digital infrastructure. With full visibility, compliance alignment, and secure digital operations, they now lead with confidence in a highly regulated industry.
Cincinnati State Technical and Community College needed to modernize its outdated intranet platform. The institution faced collaboration challenges due to siloed departments and a gap between current technology and future needs. Krish Services Group developed a modern intranet solution to enhance efficiency, connectivity, and scalability.
Client Background
The decision to modernize the intranet was driven by the need for more connectivity and scalability for campus communication in their new environment. Their existing intranet no longer met the needs of the College; Cincinnati State was looking for more than just a technology upgrade – they needed a strategic solution that would enhance how information flowed across campus communities. Faced with an intranet platform that would soon be out of support, Cincinnati State Technical and Community College realized the need to evolve to a modern solution that could support seamless communication and collaboration across its diverse departments. Given their use of Microsoft 365 already, a platform they had familiarity with was the natural fit. Following a deep dive into what the Intranet could look like in M365, Cincinnati State elected to work with Krish to build their new virtual campus hub.
Problems
- Outdated Intranet Technology: The current system lacked integration with new technologies.
- Siloed Systems: Departments operated independently without unified communication.
- Lack of Collaboration: The outdated system hindered collaboration among staff members.
- Limited Access: Employees faced difficulties in accessing important information remotely.
Solutions
- Modern SharePoint Intranet: Krish Services Group implemented Microsoft SharePoint Online as their new platform.
- Unified Communication Platform: Integrated various departmental systems into one cohesive unit.
- Enhanced Collaboration Tools: Introduced tools like Microsoft Teams for better teamwork.
- Remote Access Capability: Enabled secure remote access so employees could work from anywhere.
Business Value
- Increased Efficiency: Built on a platform that integrates seamlessly with other Microsoft products.
- Improved Collaboration: Unified communication tools foster better teamwork across departments.
- Scalability & Flexibility: Future-proof solution adaptable to evolving needs.
- Cost Savings: Reduced maintenance costs associated with outdated systems.
“The vendor of our previous intranet announced it would reach end-of-life in twelve months. We selected Krish through an RFP process, and their team proved to be the experts we needed. They guided us through reviewing our existing intranet, educated our implementation team on the possibilities of SharePoint, and helped us build a solution that was delivered on time, within budget, and immediately embraced by the campus community.”, said a key stakeholder at Cincinnati State.

The Chas E. Phipps had a requisite for a solution that allows their employees to effectively collaborate and make informed business decisions.
Solution
Krish designed and developed a new intranet and a custom product evaluation solution on Office 365 for Phipps, catering to their above requisite. We migrated Phipps’ legacy data from an existing SharePoint 2003 intranet to a new intranet on SharePoint Online, designed the information architecture and governance of the new intranet, and configured the hub site structure.
We then worked with Phipps’ sales leadership to design and develop an app for employees to introduce for consideration of new products to stock. The app enables salespeople to share information and their feedback about new products, assign tasks, and track a new product’s sales performance.
The Way Forward
- Intranet design
- Information architecture and governance
- SharePoint Migration
- Custom app development
- Office 365 configuration
Technology In Use
- SharePoint Online
- PowerApps
