Apex Networks Hardens AWS Ahead of ISO 27001

DoiT Cloud Reliability Engineers rebuilt Apex on a multi-account AWS Control Tower foundation with GuardDuty, Security Hub, and IaC guardrails.

Meet Apex Networks

Apex Networks is a technology company offering advanced networking solutions to transportation and logistics clients since 1999. The company offers a range of services such as network design and implementation, managed services, and support to service providers such as vehicle recovery, patient transport, and windscreen replacement. By leveraging a team of highly skilled engineers and technicians to continuously develop their software, Apex Networks has become a market leader that can deliver high quality, customized solutions to meet the needs of small businesses and large enterprises that want to optimize their networking infrastructure in a digital world.

The Challenge

Apex Networks faced significant challenges in governance, observability, and security for workloads running on AWS. These challenges were compounded by a single-account architecture that housed all workloads. As the organization grew, leadership recognized that moving to a multi-account structure would be more sustainable and enable better governance and security controls. However, implementing this architecture required additional expertise and in-depth knowledge that Apex Networks lacked in-house.

The Solution

DoiT's Cloud Reliability Engineers conducted discovery sessions to identify scaling challenges and implemented a comprehensive solution. They deployed AWS Control Tower with custom guardrails, integrated AWS IAM Identity Center with existing IdP, and built reusable CloudFormation StackSets for consistent security controls. DoiT also provided training on AWS Systems Manager, performed network architecture reviews, and created Infrastructure as Code templates to automate deployments and align with DevOps best practices.

Results

  • Prioritized essential governance and security items ahead of ISO/IEC 27001 audit, reducing risk and demonstrating readiness
  • Improved security posture through implementation of IAM Access Analyzer, Amazon GuardDuty, and AWS Security Hub
  • Achieved operational efficiencies by modernizing and standardizing deployment approaches
  • Established secure, well-governed AWS environment enabling DevOps adoption while maintaining security controls

DoiT International's expertise in DevOps practice and AWS infrastructure management played a significant role in securing and operationalizing our infrastructure at scale. Their commitment to delivering cost-effective and optimized solutions, while providing expert support were critical factors in choosing to collaborate with DoiT. With their help, we were able to implement additional automation, improve our security and governance posture, and manage our infrastructure as code in order to simplify version control, maintenance, and automation.

Chris White, CTO

Implementation and Automation

To address audit and compliance, DoiT built and deployed reusable AWS CloudFormation StackSets to manage security controls consistently across existing and new accounts. This included IAM Access Analyzer, Amazon GuardDuty, and AWS Security Hub, which together delivered a secure, well-governed AWS environment. By enabling monthly access-review reports to support ISO/IEC 27001 auditing, DoiT helped Apex Networks address essential governance and security items ahead of the upcoming audit. The final step in solving Apex Networks' scaling challenges was addressing its outdated infrastructure. The previous manual deployment methods created significant operational overhead. DoiT's CREs provided training, demonstrations, and best-practice documentation on using AWS Systems Manager to deploy and configure Apex Networks' large Amazon EC2 fleet.

What they say

Jupiter

On integrating DataHub, the DoiT team was very hands-on to the point where DoiT support put together the first ingestion script and pipeline to unlock us.

Kyle Espinola, Head of Platform Engineering

PicnicAI

“PerfectScale gives us the confidence to automate Kubernetes optimization while letting our engineers focus on building what matters.”

Josh Zarrabi, Infrastructure Engineer

Stefanini

“Without PerfectScale by DoiT, I don't know how we would do it. We'd have to have twice the number of people on my team to stay on top of it. With PerfectScale, we can focus on the more strategic issues.”

David Adkins, Director of Software and Platform Engineering

Software Projects

Connecting IBM and AWS privately was the piece we needed to get right, and we wanted to move faster on it than we could on our own. DoiT worked through the options with us, found the subnet overlap that was breaking the routing, and made it stable. That unblocked everything else.

DevOps Lead, Software Projects

Shasta Cloud

Attribute™'s platform is truly unique. We now have crystal-clear visibility into our cloud spend at the workload and tenant level, and that insight has already led to actionable savings and powerful insights as we further scale our service.

Paul White, VP of Engineering, Shasta Cloud

Flooid

We have worked with DoiT for many years, and there has been an increasing number of capabilities and features in DoiT Cloud Intelligence. We've embedded features such as Cloud Analytics and Reports in our own FinOps processes, it's become core to what we do.

Martin Lee, Director of Operations

Finlex

DoiT gave us the confidence to move from experimentation to production. They helped us understand the right way to build AI for the real world.
