Security as a managed service

Belgacom monitors and manages network for Emmaüs

The firewall that controls the network access for Emmaüs is located at a Belgacom datacenter. The healthcare group purchases the security as a managed service. Thanks to this approach, Emmaüs - with hospitals and care facilities at over 20 locations, chiefly in the province of Antwerp - always has access to the most up-to-date solution, without having to invest in additional internal expertise. The managed service delivers improved performance of the IT-environment for the employees thanks to secure Internet access on-site and secure VPN-access remotely.

Vlaams-Brabant makes information available through webservices

Initially, the gateway will chiefly regulate the internal use of the data resources. Later, external governmental authorities and citizens will also be able to access specific data resources of the province. Read more
