Aging network.
Unsupported firewall.
No remote visibility, fixed.
How a GTA financial services firm replaced aging network infrastructure and built a modern, fully monitored environment without a single minute of unplanned downtime.

The Challenge
A network running on aging hardware means serious trouble.
The firm was operating on a firewall the vendor no longer supported, with no active protection and no security updates being released. The network itself was running at capacity, creating connectivity failures that hit the team daily. And without remote management in place, every issue meant sending a technician on-site.
For a financial services firm where reliability and security aren't optional, the situation had reached the point where it couldn't be left alone any longer.
What Wingman Did
A clean modernization, executed in phases.
Wingman replaced the core hardware with a modern, centrally managed network platform, bringing the firm onto infrastructure that's actively supported, regularly updated, and built to scale. The network was redesigned with separated zones for better performance and tighter security boundaries. And high-performance wireless was deployed with isolated guest access, plus full remote monitoring across every layer of the environment.
Every workstream was delivered on time, with zero unplanned downtime during the upgrade.

Wingman came in with a clear plan and executed it cleanly. Our network is faster, more secure, and something our team doesn't have to think about anymore.
