Connecting property sites across Australia with secure business networks

The challenge

A large property management organisation owns and operates major commercial buildings in Sydney as well as industrial properties across Australia. Its sites need reliable internet connectivity for day-to-day business operations, but they also support infrastructure such as CCTV systems that need to communicate securely with central systems.

With properties spread across different locations, internet connectivity alone was not enough; the organisation needed the sites to operate as part of a secure connected network.

What Bang IT did

Bang IT arranged high-speed business fibre connections for the client’s locations and deployed Sophos firewall infrastructure to securely connect the sites. Secure site-to-site connectivity allows systems at individual properties to communicate with central resources without exposing that traffic directly to the public internet.

This includes CCTV infrastructure, allowing camera systems at remote properties to send data securely back to the organisation’s central server environment. Bang IT manages the connectivity and network infrastructure as part of the wider environment rather than treating the internet service and firewall as unrelated components.

The outcome

The client now has a connected network spanning its property portfolio. The solution provides high-speed business internet connectivity, secure links between geographically separate sites, centralised access to CCTV data, managed firewall security, consistent network architecture across locations and an infrastructure platform that can accommodate additional sites as the portfolio changes.

Instead of operating as independent internet-connected properties, the sites form part of a securely connected business network.
