Now in their tenth year, Gallant is a full line insurance brokerage headquartered in Corona, California. Customer fulfillment is of paramount importance to Gallant, and they strive to cultivate lasting and synergistic relationships with their clients. Maintaining these relationships, and their critical security obligations, requires a range of technologies. They’ve partnered with Zeta Sky since 2012.
Gallant Risk & Insurance
Industry:
Insurance and Risk Management
THE PROBLEM:
Shortly after opening for business, Gallant Risk & Insurance Services realized their IT infrastructure needed to be more secure: They were dealing with sensitive client information and had to meet strict regulatory compliance obligations. They also needed a better way for their employees to securely access the corporate network, both in the office and out in the field.
Zeta Sky were recommended as experts in security and cloud networking solutions. After a brief consultation, they were able to provide Gallant a cost-effective solution that both secured their data and enabled their teams to access it more efficiently.
In 2012, we were a brand new agency, focused on driving business and revenue rather than internal procedures. Zeta Sky came in and we were just blown away — not only the ease of doing business with them, but how smart they were. We really felt they could get us to the next level.

THE SOLUTION:
Zeta Sky built Gallant a private cloud ecosystem. It allowed them to centralize their data, securing their and their clients’ intellectual property while at the same time enabling their on-site and remote workers to access it from any internet-connected device. Gallant didn’t have formal IT security policies and procedures in place, so Zeta Sky mapped out a plan that made sure they were protected against cybersecurity attacks and data breaches, including recovery protocols should a breach occur.
Zeta Sky was able to get us on their cloud service. We have producers and a sales force out in the field who need access to timely information, and the fact that they’re able to access that information is invaluable for us.

THE Results:
The productivity and security of their cloud ecosystem enabled Gallant to scale efficiently, and they have expanded their business without the IT headaches typical of a mid-size growing firm.
Their sales team has access to timely information in a secure environment, enabling them to focus on closing more deals. And perhaps most importantly, Gallant enjoys the peace-of-mind that comes from knowing their sensitive data is secure and their network is managed by a team of IT experts.
Zeta Sky mapped out a plan, making sure we were protected against cybersecurity attacks or any data breaches whatsoever, and that was most key to us.

What I love about Zeta Sky is they're on the leading edge of everything. They ask the right questions to develop a program specific to you that is efficient, cost-effective, but most of all, secure.

After moving into our new offices, we realized we really didn’t have good IT policies and procedures in place. Data security is paramount in our business: We are dealing with client information — sensitive information — and our clients trust that we are going to secure that information. So it’s very important for us to have an IT partner who sees that same vision and can bring the resources to us, so we can make sure we are properly protecting that data.
